1 | Lean boneless chuck roast - (3-1/4-pound) | |

Trim fat from roast. Place roast and next 6 ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook over low heat for 11 hours or until roast is tender. Remove roast from slow cooker; let stand 10 minutes. Separate roast into bite-size pieces, and shred meat with 2 forks; set aside.
Strain cooking liquid; discard solids. Cover and freeze at least 1 hour. Skim fat from surface of cooking liquid; discard. Place cooking liquid in a saucepan, and bring to a boil; remove from heat.
Line bottom halves of buns with a lettuce leaf; top each with shredded beef and top half of bun. Yield: 9 servings (serving size: 3 ounces beef and 1 bun).
Serving Ideas : Serve hot cooking liquid as a dipping sauce.
NOTES : This recipe from Carole Steffek, of Semi Valley, California, produces its own "au jus"--a delicious, hot dip for the sandwiches. Cooked in a slow cooker, it's perfect for a busy day.
