Dr. Pepper may be a popular carbonated beverage to some (or “pop” as we call it here in Canada!), but it’s also an ingredient I like to use in cooking.

If you’re really a fan, you can even make Dr. Pepper Cake! cast iron skillet with beans, onions, bacon, sauce and text that reads "Dr. Pepper Baked Beans"These baked beans are a great dish to take to a summer potluck or BBQ. This is a stick-to-your-ribs kind of dish, so is also great for camping.
