BBQ for Leftovers

LAURIE's Note:

This is so good for any leftover roast that you may have. I calls for 3 lbs but it can be halved to accomodate a smaller amount. Try it over noodles or mashed potatoes...

This was very good ~ you can't really mess this up! I tossed it all in the crockpot and left it all day. It was great on warm rolls. The only substitutions I made were to use a large can of tomato sauce in place of the tomato paste (my husband likes a lot of sauce)and I didn't have any cider vinegar so just threw in a splash of balsamic. I used about a half a bottle of hickory-flavored bbq sauce. We had leftover pork roast and I would definitely make this again!
