Preparation

Step 1

Let’s get back to this beef though. I used a 5 lb roast, you can certainly use a smaller roast and scale back the ingredients for the sauce if you’d like. Or, keep the sauce the same and have a nice gravy to put over potatoes! Better yet…make the big roast and freeze half of it after cooking so you have a second dinner ready to go in your freezer!

Whisk together all the ingredients and add to the bottom of a slow cooker. Add roast. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Remove roast and shred with a fork, return to juices.

is a delicious meal to make for a crowd! Have some nice, crusty rolls to serve it on, or a rice would be delicious too.
