If you want to make sliders:
Three Envelope Pot Roast recipe (above), shredded
1 pkg. King's Hawaiian Rolls
Sliced Swiss cheese (1 slice per slider)
Creamy Chipotle Sauce (recipe below)
Cut each roll in half and place on a baking sheet. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on the bottom half of each roll. Place baking sheet in oven with broiler on low. Broil for 1-2 minutes or until edges of the rolls are golden and cheese has melted (be sure to watch them closely so they don't burn!). Remove baking sheet from oven.
Place a spoonful of shredded beef on top of each roll with Swiss cheese on it. Spread Creamy Chipotle sauce on the top half of each roll. Assemble each slider by placing the top half of the roll on top of the bottom.
Creamy Chipotle Sauce:
1/4 cup sour cream (I used fat free)
2 Tbsp chili sauce
2 tsp creamy horseradish sauce (I used Kraft)
Sounds amazing! !
ReplyDeleteThis looks soo good!! I love roast in the crockpot, but never thought to make them into sliders! Yumm
ReplyDeleteThis is making me so hungry right now!
ReplyDeleteRecipe looks good! We also have six daughters,ages 10-34. They are all very close as well. We, however, also have four sons...so a little different family chemistry!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds delicious ... and I love the idea of the Chipotle Sauce. Thanks so much for sharing. I'm pinning it!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but how can you call it chipotle sauce if it doesn't actually have chipotle in it? I would just put Cholula Chipotle sauce mixed in with sour cream. :/ Other than that, the recipe sounds delish!!!
ReplyDeleteIf you go to the original source recipe, you will see that the cook used 1 t. adobe sauce from chipotle peppers in place of the 2T of chili sauce, which was a suggestion to use if you would not like your sauce quite so 'hot'....hence the chipotle sauce name of the recipe ;-)
DeleteWhat is chili sauce? I'm not sure where to find it? Could I use chili powder?
DeleteChili sauce is found next to the ketchup. It's basically ketchup with a "kick".
DeleteThis was so easy and so good. Not quite sure why the cup of water though...Will do about 1/4-1/2 cup next time to see how that works. The "chipotle" sauce was really good and I am not a spicy person. Not a swiss person either so I used provolone but DH used swiss. Super easy and delish! Will be making in my CP to take to Nascar this year!

ReplyDeleteFound this on Pinterest and made it today. LOVED it! I also love your site. I have four other sisters so I understand how much love there is to share. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.
ReplyDeletesounds delicious... can anyone comment as to saltiness? My DH mentioned it seemed it might be, what with an enevelope each of the 3 ingreds, with just 1 cup of water. Thoughts?
ReplyDeleteOMG! I have this cooking right now and it smells really good, however when I took a sip of the juices....UGH it is SO SO SALTY. I'm really disappointed. :( I just peeled a potato and stuck in, hopping that it will absorb some of the salt. I think I'll add some more water too, even though there's a TON of juices in the pot already. I'm really hopping to save this one. :-/
DeleteI wondered the same thing. First thing I thought when reading the ingred list. I know onion soup and italian seasoning and au jous packets are all sky high in sodium.
DeleteThe first time I cooked this it was really salty so this time I only used 1/2 of the envelopes, we'll see.
DeleteI thought I should come back with an update...I did add the potato to the crockpot and then about another 3/4 cup of water and it seemed to help quite a bit. Still salty, but not nearly as bad. I also went ahead and took some of the juices out of the pot, made a roux and then added the juices to make a thicker gravy. My husband prefers it that way. So all in all, I think the meal is saved.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering what brand of Italian dressing mix you all use? I'm wondering if that is the problem? I'm using Good Seasons Zesty Italian. I used it in another recipe (Italian Chicken) and thought that one was rather salty as well. Maybe I need to find another brand? or some other substitute??
Hi Corey!
DeleteI am sorry yours came out so salty. I just use my generic store brand Italian Seasoning. That may be the problem?
I meant that I use the generic store brand Italian dressing mix.
Deleteoh yum! I just saw this on pinterest, repinned and will be making it tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI just made this. My daughter has already tried it and says it is perfect!! I used the regular Italian dressing packet not the zesty and it is not salty tasting. I used the store bought Kraft Chipotle Mayo and she said it was fine but wants to try the making the sauce in the recipe next time. YUMMY!! Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI made this last night for supper, and it was yummy. I didn't use "store bought" onion soup mix, but my homemade version and I didn't think it was salty. I might make the sauce a little spicier next time or maybe use a hot salsa. I serve them with carmelized onions. They were super messy - finger lickin' good! I believe this will become my standby potroast recipe as well.
ReplyDeleteMade this tonight, its yummy but I didnt do it as sliders I made some mexican rice and put it all on a tortilla! Watch out taco bell!
ReplyDeleteThere is no one member of our family that I have found that has NOT liked this meal. I can make one thing and everyone is happy...this is really good! :)
ReplyDeleteFound this recipe on Pinterest and love, love, love it. I'm not always a fan of pot roast because it is usually on the dry side and needs a boost of flavor. This is delicious and full of flavor. I will definitely be making this in the future.
ReplyDeletehow many servings does this make? I need to make for about 10-11! but I want to make sure there will be enough! suggestions?
ReplyDelete@Charw22,
ReplyDeleteIt makes about 12-15 sliders. It depends on the size of your roast and how much meat you put on each sandwich. If you got a bigger roast it would go further. There is enough liquid that it wouldn't dry out. Hope this helps!
After the meat is shredded, do I put it back in the gravy before making the sliders?
ReplyDeleteYes, just put the meat back in and use a slotted spoon to put it on each slider. Thanks!
DeleteThank you for sharing this recipe on Pinterest, my sister had it last night and gave me the recipe. I made it this morning for dinner tonight with a frozen roast. It was tender, juicy, dripping fabulous. My kids and neighbor girl loved it and I took a couple of sandwiches over to a neighbor who was so appreciative she wants the recipe too. I couldn't find the hawaiian rolls so i just got some little hard rolls Was fabulous. Thank you again
ReplyDeleteI agree with Corey...this was waaaaay too salty. Whoooo! It had great flavor and the meat was falling apart tender...I just shredded it with two forks right inside the crock...but the salt factor was overwhelming. I want to make this again, but would like suggestions on how to minimize the salt. Anybody?
ReplyDeleteOne reply from the blogger states "I just use my generic store brand Italian Seasoning." That's very different from a packet of Italian dressing mix... Also could try using low sodium beef broth instead of the water and packet of au jus...
DeleteEven my picky 5 year-old liked this one.
ReplyDeleteI made this yesterday and it was so good! Easy and scrumptious!! I used adobo sauce instead of chili sauce and the combination of everything really mellowed out the heat! I will be making this again for sure!!
ReplyDeleteI made these last week and they were sooo good, even our 18m old daughter ate one! we ate almost the whole package of rolls lol there was only 2 left ! My grandmother even asked for the recipe, so thats a BIG complement since shes be best cook i know :)
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried this with a pork roast? I have one in my freezer and I'm looking for a good recipe for it. My husband HATES traditional pot roast (Mom made it way too much when he was a kid), so I need something to wow him. Thoughts?

DeleteI adapted this recipe for Venison Sliders as my husband is a avid hunter and deer is always plentiful at our house. I'm a bit picky though and not especially crazy about the "wild" taste so when I come across a recipe that I think will hide it, I get excited. This did just the job! It's wonderful, my whole family loved it. I will definitely be making it a lot more. I hope you don't mind that I reblog it (giving you credit of course) as a venison dish. If you do, please let me know. http://blakestr.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious!!! I used regular size hawaiian buns and mozzarella cheese. I didn't think it was too salty. I used store brand onion soup mix and Italian dressing mix. The au jus wasn't store brand but it was a cheapy brand.
ReplyDeleteOkay, it's 7:29am and my mouth is watering just reading about these pot roast sliders. Thank you for sharing. I did some roast beef and caramelized sandwiches, http://hometownslop.blogspot.com/2012/06/roast-beef-sandwiches-with-caramelized.html
ReplyDeleteI look forward to trying this soon. Thank you very much for sharing.
I made this tonight and it was delish! I'm not much of a meat eater and was pleasantly surprised! We didn't do the sandwiches, we just sliced up the meat and served it up. Thanks, girls, for sharing!
ReplyDeleteJust made these. Left my pot roast in the slow cooker for about 10 hours. The longer the better as it just falls apart. Instead of the 3 packets I simply used McCormicks pot roast seasoning pack since that is what I always use. THESE WERE DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI used the 3 packets, salsa, and added a little more water than called for. For the sauce I mixed equal parts mayo and sour cream and added a few squirts of sriracha. The sauce on the sliders was excellent!

ReplyDeleteThese were soooo good!!! I forgot to get salsa, so I just used a small can of tomato sauce, plus I threw in a sliced onion. The sauce is super yummy and I don't know how people thought they were too salty, I actually ended up adding more salt after shredding the beef. My super picky 5 year old even loved them, so this recipe is definitely a keeper!!
ReplyDeleteWhat type of roast do you recommend?
ReplyDeleteWe have used all kinds. Sirloin tip was yummy. Some of the fatter cuts turn out very moist. If you have a favorite type of roast you may want to stick with that. Thanks for the question. Hope it helps.
DeleteI just made this tonight and it was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSounds incredible! I just put a roast in the freezer yesterday...this is how I'm gonna cook it! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I just joined the sisterhood. :)

Thanks for this recipe. I made it this summer and finally put it up on my blog today with a link back to your blog. I made changes to it as well as made it with chicken. THANKS so much! Love your blog. http://cafescrapper-scrapsoflife.blogspot.com/2013/01/pot-roast-sliders-chicken-sliders-recipe.html
ReplyDeleteI made this tonight for dinner. DELISH!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteI made this as one of my freezer meals. Prepared the sauce and poured over meat, then froze. I cooked it last night and it was simply A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! So delicious! IF (BIG IF--haha) you have leftovers, which we had a little, we made omelets the next morning with the meat. Oh, melt in your mouth goodness.
ReplyDeleteThese were SOO good! I made them to take on a picnic for our six month anniversary & they were absolutely delicious. Thanks so much!
