Slow Cooker Barbecue Beef Sandwiches

Barbecue Beef Sandwiches are a great meal and an easy one to prepare. You just need to put the ingredients in a slow cooker, cover, cook, and go on with your day.  When you are ready for dinner just shred the meat, return to the sauce, stir in the beef to get it coated with the delicious sauce and pile high on rolls.  Serve with red onion slices and/or dill pickle slices.  I usually have sides of beans, corn, and Cole Slaw.
