Slowcooker madness

You would have thought I bought myself a new crockpot, but no, just trying lots of new recipes.  This past Southern Living had at least 5 of them, and we have tried 2 so far.  The BBQ was great this weekend but I think I put too much coke.  The recipe was only 3-4 pounds of boston butt (or shoulder roast), 1 bottle of BBQ sauce, and 1 can of coke.  The meat was swimming at the end of the 4 hours on high, so if you try this use less coke and cook for 8 hours on low, would have made it much better.  The meat was still tender and the meal was a success.  Tonight we are trying the Italian pot roast, and cooking it for 8 hours on low like the recipe suggests.  We also have our last soccer game so I will have something really yummy to come home to afterwards.  We will try the king ranch chicken this week too so I will follow up about the next few meals!
