Cool, then refrigerate any leftovers. To serve as a sandwich, spread split kaiser roll with 1 Tbsp. KRAFT Real Mayo Mayonnaise; sprinkle with 2 tsp. KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese. Add 3 oz. sliced leftover meat, 2 Tbsp. leftover onions and 1 KRAFT Singles Select. Wrap in foil. Bake at 375ºF for 15 min. or until heated through.

Substitute

Prepare using any other boneless beef pot roast, such as a rump, bottom round, shoulder or arm roast.

Note

Add 1/2 cup water to the barbecue sauce if a milder flavor is desired.

I modified this recipe bc I saw alot of negative reviews on this bc of the overwhelming bbq taste. So i modified it and used the sauce mix from the spare ribs recipe. Its perfect this way

I've made pork roast with BBQ sauce before, and it was so-so. This was not very good at all. The veggies took on too much flavor but the beef is edible. Might have to do something with the beef for left overs.

This was without a doubt, one of the worst recipes I've ever tried and would NEVER make it again. Pot roast and veggies soaked in BBQ sauce? Awful!!!

Pot roast is one of my go-to slow cooker meals and I found this a nice change from my regular recipe. The BBQ sauce added a nice flavor and my entire family enjoyed it, including my picky husband!

NASTY, NASTY, NASTY!!!! I was super excited to make this and try something different from my usual pot roast. The sauce was sour tasting and I used Light original bbq sauce. I ended up throwing away the whole batch. I will be going back to my original pot roast recipe and throwing away this one.

It was just plain discussing. I used the "Hickory" BBQ sauce because several reviews said the "Original" lacked flavor. I would never make this again...using any flavor BBQ sauce. Thumbs Down!! :(

This is another one that my husband and I loved. He wanted a good old-fashioned pot roast and I wanted something for the slow-cooker. We were both happy with the results.

The roast had great flavor, not to sweet and the bbq sauce didn't over power the beef. The carrots on the other hand were way too sweet. The potatoes were very good and cooked wonderfully. I will definitely make this again but make a separate dish of carrots.
