SLOW-COOKED POT ROAST SLIDERS

Slow-Cooked Pot Roast Sliders image

This recipe reminds me of my mom's famous pot roast. Best of all, these sandwiches are simple to make, with only five ingredients. I love that I can enjoy the flavors of Mom's roast with the delicious portability of a slider. -Lauren Drafke, Cape Coral, Florida
