Combine the following ingredients in the crock pot, turn on high, cover and leave for the day (at least four hours for a roast, three hours for the meatballs):
- 2-4 pounds of beef, pork roast, or meatballs
- 1/2 bottle of cheap BBQ sauce (whatever you find on sale)
- 1 can of chopped tomatoes
- 2-8 TBS (to your taste) honey or brown sugar
- Some or none of the following: chopped onion, garlic (fresh or powder,) a can of pineapple tidbits, chopped celery, hot sauce, peppers, whatever you want to sneak into your family's diet
- 10 minutes to an hour before you want to serve the BBQ, take the roast out and shred it with a fork
- Drain out some of the excess liquid from the crockpot, return the meat to the crockpot and stir in the second half of the bottle of BBQ sauce
- Season or spice up with any of the following: herbs, spices, smoke flavor, more sweetener or whatever strikes your fancy
- Turn the crock pot on low, to keep warm
- Serve over buns with slices of tomato, onion and lettuce, or even over rice with a salad (my favorite with the meatballs).
Whoo hoo! Thanks Adina for this yummie looking recipe! :)
