Place one sliced onion in the bottom of a slow cooker; add garlic. Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper; place in slow cooker. Add 1-1/2 cups root beer to slow cooker. Cover and cook on low setting
for 8 to 10 hours, or on high setting for 5 hours. Remove roast and set aside to cool. Discard onion and liquid in slow cooker. In a saucepan, bring sauce and remaining root beer to a boil; simmer for 30 minutes. When roast is cool enough to handle, shred with a fork, discarding bone and fat; return shredded meat to slow cooker. Stir in sauce mixture and remaining onion. Cover and cook on high setting for one to 3 hours, until onion is soft. Serves 12.
