Simple, easy, and good! I added a jalepeno, some red pepper flakes, and apricot preserves and it turned out amazing. I also substituted a can of Rotel for the tomatoes...So tender I couldn't even get the meat out of the slow cooker without it falling apart. At the end, i recommend cooking the mixture with the top off for about thirty minutes to allow the sauce time to thicken. Definitely enjoyable.

There needs to be more liquids in the pot because the outside of the meat was very burned. The inside meat was still tastey though.

HORRIBLE. Very bad after taste. We did not like this at all. I'm thinking it was the mushrooms but not sure.

It tasted all right but was easy to make, only required few ingredients. The sauce came out a little watery, so I let it simmered for couple more minutes.

My whole family loved this and they usually don't like shredded beef sandwiches. My husband really loved it and he usually doesn't like shredded beef sandwicheds. Next time I will try making it with pork!

I used smaller pieces of meat that were less expensive. It tasted very good but only needed about 4 hrs and 30 min on high, not 5 hrs.
