Sharon Shelton, of Red Oak, Iowa, wrote hoping someone had a recipe for Sloppy Joes using Dr. Pepper.
While it might sound like an unusual request, many of our readers knew exactly the recipe Sharon was looking for. Joyce Wheeler, of Forest, Virginia, and Jim and Marianne Bielmaier, of Tularosa, New Mexico, sent the same recipe from a Cooking with Dr. Pepper cookbook. The Belmaiers are originally from Iowa, having lived in Webster City for 32 years.
