Beef BBQ Sandwich Filling

I found this recipe at Taste of Home.

Beef BBQ Sandwich Filling

1 beef sirloin tip roast (4 pounds)
1 can (5-1/2 ounces) spicy hot V8 juice
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup packed brown sugar (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
16 kaiser rolls, split

Cut roast in half; place in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Combine the V8
juice, water, vinegar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar
and seasonings; pour over roast. Cover and cook on low for 8-10
hours or until meat is tender.


Remove meat and shred with two forks; return to slow cooker and heat through. Spoon 1/2 cup meat mixture onto each roll. 

Yield: 16 servings.
