We never seem to eat all the roast when we make it in the crockpot. Thanks for sharing! You can never go wrong with roast in a crock pot! And I love how you made another 2 meals out of the leftovers.

Save your drippings to make gravy the next day, then shred the beef and put into a bowl of mashed potatoes. Top with the gravy.

I love extending meals like that. With a large roast chicken I can get the roast chicken meal, some sandwiches, a pie made from leftover meat and vegies with leftover gravy, and even a pot of soup made from boiling the bones into stock. Regarding your query about using canned chicken to make sandwiches, I am not sure as chicken is not sold canned in this country and I've never had it. It would be worth a try, though. I like your blog. I'll definitely be back. That is a really great idea. I love extending meals like that.

I usually do the typical roast, carrots, and potatoes in the crockpot. I take the leftover roast and thinly slice it and put in gravy for over rice or noodles. I also do the beef bbq sandwiches and sometimes beef veggie soup. However, I didn't think about actually shredding it for burritos or shredding it period to stretch it further. :) Thanks for some new meal ideas with roast!!

My mom chops up the leftover meat and makes more gravy with the rest of the broth and simmers it together then serves it in hoagie rolls or over noodles or mashed potatoes.
