BBQ Beef Sandwiches

My mom made these sandwiches last weekend when we were home and I just had to give them a try. Its super easy and if you have a crock pot then you are a couple of hours away from a hearty, tasty and simple meal! I wanted to make it yesterday for the guys cause I knew we were going to be eating all day and this goes really far, but we had so much other food it was unnecessary so I decided it would be a perfect Sunday dinner idea after watching football all day and vegging on the couch. It makes a lot so Matt will have lunch for the week, or we will be prepared for our guests later.

Cook Time: 6 Hours
Yields: 1 pound of meat, 6+ sandwiches
Calls Home to Mom: 2


INGREDIENTS:

• 1 Eye of the Round Roast (or any nice lean looking roast, about 1lb)
• 1 Onion
• 3 Cloves Garlic 
• 1/2 Cup BBQ Sauce
• 1/4 Cup Water
• Salt and Pepper
• 1 TSP Dried Oregano

PREPARATION:

Turn Crock Pot on high heat, Cut up the onion and garlic add to the crock with 1/4 cup of water. Salt and Pepper the roast and place in the pot and coat with the BBQ sauce and sprinkle Oregano. Put the lid on and let cook for 5-6 Hours (no peeking). After letting it slow cook, take 2 forks and pull the meat apart.  Let warm in the crock pot until ready to eat. THATS IT!!!

TO SERVE:


We got some Hoagie buns and scooped some meat on the bread with some fresh cut onions, and dill pickle slices... MMmmmm!

 SOME HELPFUL TIPS:

• Add extra BBQ sauce if you like your sandwiches more sloppy. 
• If there is any fat on the roast, remove after cooked (it makes for yummy juice).
• The longer you let it cook untouched, the more tender the meat will be.
• We had some Asparagus so I threw some stalks in on top of the meat in the crock pot for the last 30 minutes and it was delicious...it was sort of BBQ infused steamed asparagus.
