"This is adapted from a crockpot cookbook I have. The original recipe contained water and cooked on high. We found that the meat is better cooked on low, and that the addition of the water makes it too soupy. We enjoy this on onion rolls from the bakery of our local grocery store. Sometimes we even spread the rolls with garlic butter and toast them under the broiler before loading with the meat. Great with Bread and Butter Pickles, #71203 or my Dill & Garlic Refrigerator Pickles by the Bucket-Full, #247747...."
INGREDIENTS
•
3 cups celery, chopped (I dice this pretty fine, as I'm not a big fan of celery and don't want to find recognizeable chunks )
•
1 cup onion, chopped
•
1 cup ketchup
•
1 cup barbecue sauce
•
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
•
2 tablespoons brown sugar
•
1 teaspoon chili powder
•
1 teaspoon salt (I usually omit this)
•
1/2 teaspoon pepper
•
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I usually just throw in a healthy spoonful of the jarred minced garlic)
•
3 -4 lbs boneless chuck roast (trim any visible fat off first, to avoid having it liquified in your sandwich later)
•
14 -18 hamburger buns
•
pickle (optional)
