I love easy recipes and nothing gets easier than a recipe you can throw in a crockpot, let it cook all day, and have a tasty meal waiting for you when you come home from work or a full day of hunting. This recipe fits that bill perfectly. It makes 10 hamburger-sized sandwiches and is delicious as leftovers (if there are any). I like to serve these with coleslaw and BBQ baked beans for a full meal. I even put coleslaw on my sandwich for an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy!
