Every once in a while a roast just doesn’t turn out as I planned. Maybe I tried a new recipe or a different cut of meat, but whatever the reason the roast came out of the oven a little tough or too dry. That night I will serve it as planned with extra drippings poured over the top.
However, instead of putting it in the refrigerator where it will turn into a science project, or even worse throwing it immediately in the trash, I put it in the crock pot. I pour 1/2 – 1 Cup of V-8 juice or broth over it and cook on high for 2 hours or until I can pull it apart with a fork. Remove bones if necessary, then shred it with a fork and mix it with Barbecue sauce. My favorite barbecue sauce is my own recipe – a Kansas City style sweet and spicy barbecue sauce. This trick works for pork roast, roast beef, and even chicken.
