Place the meat and garlic and two cans of soup 5100001177CF
in crock pot and cook on low for 8 hours. Do not try to speed this up by cooking on high it will compromise the meat. It must be cooked low and slow!
After 8 hours take out the meat and shred it with 2 forks.

I used the Artisan Bread in 5 minutes a Day  recipe http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/Artisan-Bread-In-Five-Minutes-A-Day.aspx. On a side note, make these they are worth the time ! The smell alone is worth it.

Put meat on rolls, you may put mayo if you want top with cheese if desired and dip in the broth. The broth will drip down your chin don’t worry about it!  No one will notice because they too will be in heaven!
This was by far the best sandwich I have ever had! Enjoy!
