After being cooped up all winter, it’s time for a spring fling! It doesn’t need to be anything fancy. I’m game for an easy, quick, skip the fuss party.
Let me tell you what I have in mind.
A simple get-together over refreshing Blackberry Ginger Sippers and Blackberry Ginger Beef BBQ.
How does tender, juicy beef simmered in Canada Dry® Blackberry Ginger Ale BBQ sauce sound to you? Start with the crisp, clean taste of real ginger in Canada Dry™. Delicious blackberries offer a taste treat of the season I know you’ll enjoy! The best part is I let my slow cooker do all the work.
Season the roast with salt and pepper. Pour on Canada Dry® Blackberry Ginger Ale.
Stir in the rest of the BBQ ingredients, set the controls and let it do its thing.
When the beef is ready, shred it and put it back in the sauce.
Set the timer for an hour and all the blackberry and ginger flavor cooks into to meat.
The result is a Carolina-style Beef BBQ packed with goodness. Not too sweet and oh so tender and juicy.
Pile it high on a warm bun. Serve it with your favor sides.
