Shredded Pot Roast Sandwiches

Submitted by PetesNina

"I always loved hot sandwiches as a kid. My family is not too crazy about 'mushy meat', but this has a flavor that even they love. I like to use home made white bread to turn this into open faced sandwiches. Add mashed potatoes and you have a complete comfort meal for a cold day. Leftovers get turned into a quick and easy potpie the next day. This also freezes very well! Considering the ingredients, I am sure I got the recipe idea from a soup can once upon a time. It has been so long I honestly cannot remember, though."
