Easy Shredded BBQ Dinner

This dinner is so surprisingly simple and tasty, you will reach for it again and again.  You can also switch items to help reduce the calories.  Let's start with the Shredded BBQ first.  For this you will need:
1 either pork tenderloin or a turkey london broil (Yup it works and reduces the calories!)
1 bottle of your favorite Barbecue sauce
1/2 a bottle of brown beer (go ahead finish the bottle!)
1 medium sliced onion (this is optional)

1.)  Take your roast and put it in the crock pot.  Pour the barbecue over the roast.  Pour the beer over the sauce.
2.)  Cook for either 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.





3.)  After that cooking time, remove the roast from the crock pot.  Using two forks shred the meat.  Return it to the crock pot and let it go for another half hour.  This allows the meat to absorb the sauce.

This can be served on hamburger buns, hard rolls, 100 calorie rolls.  This time around, I decided to serve it on corn bread for a change of pace.
