Slow Cooker Chuck Roast Barbecue

By Beefman-2

I found this in my Southern Living Ultimate Quick and Easy cookbook and made it last night for the first time. This one's definitely a "keeper," as my husband puts it. Even our notoriously picky 3 year old loved it, if that tells you anything!

Ingredients

• 2 lbs chuck roast
• 3/4 cup cola drink
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 large onions, chopped
• 1/2 cup barbecue sauce (your choice)

Preparation

Step 1

1 Chop onions and place in bottom of 4 quart slow cooker. 2 Trim all visible fat off of roast, cut in half to ensure even cooking, and place on top of onions. 3 Mix cola, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar and minced garlic. 4 Reserve 1/2 cup for use later, and pour the rest over the meat. 5 Cover and cook on high for 6 hours or on low for 10 hours. 6 When meat is done cooking and is very tender, remove meat and onions from the slow cooker with a slotted spoon. 7 Discard cooking liquid in slow cooker. 8 Add reserved sauce mixture and 1/2 cup bottled barbecue sauce to slow cooker and cook uncovered on high for 10 minutes. 9 Meanwhile, shred roast with two forks. 10 When sauce is finished, return shredded beef and onions to slow cooker, stir well, cover, and cook until heated through--about 10 minutes on high.
