Beef Barbecue
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 5 min. Cook: 6 hours 20 min.
YIELD: 12 servings.
We like to keep our freezer stocked with plenty of beef roasts. When we're not in the mood for pot roast, I fix these satisfying sandwiches instead. The meat cooks in a tasty sauce while I'm work. The meat cooks in a tasty sauce while I'm at work. Then I just shred the beef and serve it on rolls.
