Renee's sister was the first to talk about this recipe. Renee was looking for an easy recipe that would be southern husband approved.  Her sister used it as a go to recipe for her teenage kids and promised delicious bbq sandwiches. 

Using a crockpot can be a life saver for busy riders. The recipe works well to set and go if you have a busy day ahead of you.

8 oz Root Beet
