Instructions
 

  • Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast and season it generously with salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
  • Place the seasoned beef chuck roast in the slow cooker and pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the top, making sure the roast is well coated.
  • Cover and cook on low heat for 7-8 hours or on high heat for 4-5 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  • Once the beef is cooked, use two forks to shred it directly in the crockpot, mixing it with the BBQ sauce.
  • Toast the hamburger buns lightly if desired.
  • To serve, spoon the shredded BBQ beef onto the bottom half of each hamburger bun. Top with coleslaw, pickles, sliced onions, or any other desired toppings.
  • Place the top half of the bun on top of the filling to create a sandwich.
  • Serve the Crockpot BBQ Beef Sandwiches immediately, and enjoy!
