Ingredients

  • 1venison roast
  • 1 tbsp.olive oil
  • 1yellow onion, sliced
  • 4garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cupyour favorite barbecue sauce
  • ½ cupbeer or beef/venison stock
  • 1 tbsp.apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp.dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp.salt
  • ½ tsp.pepper
  • buns of choice, for serving
  • pickles, for serving

Directions

  1. 1

    Start by letting the roast come to room temperature for 30 minutes before you sear it (if you can). This helps create a nice crust on the sear you’ll perform by ensuring the meat heats evenly. Then, pat it dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Next, heat a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Once hot, sear the roast on all sides until a nice, brown crust has formed. Take your time – this could take 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Then, place your seared roast into the bottom of a slow cooker. Cover it with the onions, garlic, barbecue sauce, beer or stock, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Cook for 8 hours on low or until the meat is literally falling apart. If it is too tough to pull apart, it needs more time. Shred the meat with forks.

  5. 5

    To serve, pull some out, place it on a bun, add more barbecue sauce, and top with pickles. Enjoy!
