Directions

1 Trim excess fat from beef. Cut beef into 4 pieces. Place beef in 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.
2 Mix remaining ingredients except buns; pour over beef. Cover and cook on low heat setting 7 to 8 hours or until beef is tender.
3 Remove beef to cutting board. Cut into thin slices; return to cooker.
4 Cover and cook on low heat setting 20 to 30 minutes longer or until beef is hot. Fill buns with beef mixture.

Note: This recipe was tested in slow cookers with heating elements in the side and bottom of the cooker, not in cookers that stand only on a heated base. For slow cookers with just a heated base, follow the manufacturer’s directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature.

For a delicious kick, spread buns with horseradish sauce.

Take a dip! Sandwiches can be served au jus. Serve the juices left in the cooker in small bowls to dip the sandwiches into while eating to make each bite extra delicious!

My family loved this recipe. My kids literally ate it within a couple of minutes. One of my kids said he wanted to eat it everyday. The sauce was a little thinner than I was expecting but they enjoyed it all the same. Unfortunately I didn't have beef so I had to use pork but they still loved it. I can't wait to try it with the beef next time.

The beef literally fell apart in the crock pot. The meat was not sliceable as indicated in the recipe but we were looking to shred it anyway. I wish we would have shredded/pulled the beef apart sooner so that the sauce could have cooked into the meat more. Really good flavor. This made really good leftovers and a quick sandwich for several days. We will make this again.

My sauce turned out very thin. But the beef was tasty and very tender. Will probably try again but use a leaner cut of meat so my sauce will be thicker.
