Preparation

Step 1

1. Place the roast on a 22x18-in. piece of heavy-duty foil; sprinkle with liquid smoke and soy sauce.
2. Wash bananas and place at the base of each side of roast.
3. Pull sides of foil up round meat; add water. Seal foil tightly; wrap again with another large piece of foil.
4. Place in a shallow baking pan; refrigerate overnight, turning several times.
5. Place foil-wrapped meat in a roasting pan.
6. Bake at 400° for 1 hour. Reduce heat to 325°; continue baking for 3-1/2 hours.
7. Drain; discard bananas and liquid. Shred meat with a fork.

Freeze option: Freeze cooled meat with some of the juices in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if necessary.
