Slow Cooker Barbecue Beef Sandwiches
Tired of the same old dinners, need some fresh ideas, some new tricks for planning ahead, and making family meal time happen?! What’s for dinner Wednesdays to the rescue!!
So here’s my Dinner Dilemma recipe for you all…..
I literally use my Slow Cooker about 3 nights a week. With after school activities there just isn’t time to prepare a meal without it. So on my weekly meal plans, I mark the days I know I need to use my Slow Cooker and go in search of new recipes to try.
One source I’ve used in my Southern Living Slow Cooker cookbook, which is where today’s recipe originated:
Slow Cooker Barbecue Beef Sandwiches
Equipment
- 6-8 quart slow cooker
Ingredients
- 1 3.5 pound eye of round roast
- 2 tsp Salt divided
- 2 Garlic Cloves pressed
- 1 10.5 oz can Beef Broth
- 1 cup Ketchup
- 1/2 cup firmly packed Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup fresh Lemon Juice
- 3 tablespoon Steak Sauce
- 1 teaspoon coarse ground Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
- 12 buns
Instructions
- Sprinkle roast with 1 teaspoon salt. Stir together remaining salt and next 8 ingredients. Add beef to slow cooker and then pour sauce over beef. Cover and cook on HIGH for 7 hours. Shred beef and serve on buns.
I also made a broccoli slaw mix I picked up at Trader Joe’s to top the sandwiches and served corn on the cob with sweet potato fries.

Lovely meeting Kim and wow.. I can’t look at those photographs without wanting to go to the kitchen right this minute and start cooking.
Sheila, I love the series idea. I know I can use all of the ideas I can get. When things get busy, meal planning tends to be the first thing to slide.
