It was the first frosty day of fall, and I needed something to warm me up. Something hearty, beefy and easy. So I made slow cooker shredded BBQ pot roast and it fit the bill perfectly. It wasn’t long before I forgot how cold it was and how cold it would get in the coming days and weeks. Brrrrr! I should’ve made a double batch!

Slow Cooker Shredded BBQ Pot Roast

Not Your Typical Pot Roast

I like my pot roast shredded, but if you like yours chopped or sliced you can do that instead. Or do a little bit of each. Half chopped and half shredded makes for a great texture contrast. Either way this slow cooker shredded BBQ pot roast comes out very tender and very tasty. You can substitute beef broth for the Coke too if you don’t have soda on hand.

I think pot roast is best served with grits, but mashed potatoes are just (well, almost) as great. I like the textural contrast of the grits with the tender, juicy beef.

Also try my slow cooker jalapeno pot roast and Mississippi pot roast.
