This is great, easy, and feeds a bunch.

1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed (I add a little more - about 1/4 cup extra - because I like my bbq sauce sweeter.)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 Tbsp prepared Dijon-style mustard
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp liquid smoke flavoring
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 (4 lb) boneless chuck roast

In a large bowl, combine ketchup, brown sugar, red wine vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Stir in salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Place chuck roast in a slow cooker. Poor bbq sauce mixture over chuck roast. Cover, and cook on Low for 8-10 hours.

Remove chuck roast from slow cooker, shred with a fork, and return to the slow cooker. Stir meat to evenly coat with sauce. Continue cooking approximately one hour.

And, if you want, here's the coleslaw recipe that I always make with it...

1 (16 oz) package coleslaw mix
2 Tbsp minced onion
1/3 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
2 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice

Combine the coleslaw and onion in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, salt, pepper, milk, mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth. Pour over the coleslaw and onion mixture, stir well, and chill for at least one hour.
