If you're looking for slow cooker beef recipes to make sandwiches for a game day party, or just want an easy slow cooker dinner recipe, try this Slow Cooker No Fail Barbecue Beef recipe. It's made with just a few simple ingredients you likely already have in your pantry, such as BBQ sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

Serves6

Cooking Time10 hr

Ingredients

2 1/2 pounds beef chuck roast (or cross rib roast), trimmed of excess fat
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 to 2 cups barbecue sauce

Instructions

Lay out a long piece of foil and place roast in the middle (or use slow cooker liner).
Season on all sides with the pepper, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and paprika. Rub the seasonings in.
Wrap the roast up tightly in the foil (or liner). Wrap the roast up tightly in the foil (or liner).
Place in fridge and let sit overnight (if you have the time). If not, just place the foiled meat in the bottom of your slow cooker (the smaller the better, as long as it fits).
Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 10 hours (totally depends on how your slow cooker cooks. Author's dish cooked for about 8 hours).
Carefully remove the foil (or liner) and place meat on a cutting board.
Shred into small pieces. Place meat back in the slow cooker.
Add in desired amount of BBQ sauce and stir (Author just used about a cup from the bottle from the grocery store, but if you want to make your own you can do that).
Add in additional seasonings, if needed.
Cover and cook on LOW for another 15 to 30 minutes and then serve.
You can serve the meat on toasted buns, as paninis, salad, or however you desire.

Do you have a favorite barbecue sauce? We love to use Sweet Baby Ray's Original Sauce. I like that you use the beef roast instead of hamburger for this recipe. I love hamburger, but it is nice to have something a little meatier to bite into once in a while.

Foil inside a crock pot? I don't know why that sounds so strange to me but it does. If I chose to omit the foil or liner...would I have the same results? Either way it still sounds delicious. Almost like an upgraded version of the Sloppy Joe. Caramelized onions with a blend of peppers on a toasted roll could be another way to go too!
