| Very yummy! and easy! Was inexpensive to buy the pot roast-less than $9 for a 3+ lb, and was plenty to feed my family of 6. My only difficulty was finding the southwest style rub, so ended up settling on Mrs. Dash southwest chipotle flavor..was great! after 6-7 hours the roast fell apart, so I easily shredded it with forks and served it on sandwich rolls. yum yum! definitely adding it to our favorites!!
Thanks so much for sharing!! |

Qick and easy recipe for BBQ beef pot roast. |
Ingredients: |
|
3 lb |
|
beef chuck pot roast |
|
2 tbs |
|
southwest style spice rub |
|
1 tbs |
|
vegetable oil |
|
1 cup |
|
barbecue sauce |
Directions: |
|
Season the beef with the spice rub. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Brown the beef on both sides in the hot oil, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
Pour the bbq sauce over the beef and turn to coat. Cover the cooker and cook on low for 6-10 hours or until the beef is easily pierced with a fork.
Remove the beef to a cutting board and rest for 10 minutes. Skim the fat off the juices. Slice the beef across the grain and serve with the juices.
Note from the editor: if you cook it for 8 hours on low, this'd be just fine, and you won't need any additional moisture (water), but if you're short on time, then you're going to want to add some water (a half cup or so) and cook it on high for 4-6 hours. If you're really short on time, and you have a dutch oven, you can cook the beef (NO SAUCE-- the sugar in the sauce will burn... just use the spice rub and oil) in your dutch oven with lid placed securely on top and cook for 2 hours at 200 degrees F (or 90 minutes at 250 if your oven doesn't go as low as 200) Add the sauce as you serve.
