Notes

All slow cookers cook differently and some run hotter than others. 4 hours on high and 8 hours on low is just a guide. Continue cooking your roast until it easily shreds apart with 2 forks. It should be very tender and fall apart easily.
For faster cook times, cube the roast into smaller pieces before placing in the slow cooker.
Add cooked broccoli, peas, and carrots to add some veggies to this dish.
