Works for me Wednesday

When I make a roast, I always buy a big one so I have leftovers. I have a few different things I do with leftover roast beef.
One thing I do is shred it and put it in a 9x9 pan. I pour some of the leftover gravy on top, and then put whatever vegetable (usually corn or beans) we had over that. I then cover the pan tightly with foil and freeze it. The next week I thaw it and put mashed potatoes on top. ( I usually use Bob Evans ready made potatoes). I bake it at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. It makes a delicious Shepherds Pie that doesn't taste like leftovers.

Another way I use leftover roast is to make BBQ beef. This is a really good recipe for it.
BBQ Beef
2 cups shredded, cooked beef
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup vinegar
4 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 teaspoons packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Heat all ingredients, except beef to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir roast into sauce and serve on buns.
