French dips

I've posted this recipe on facebook before, it's one of my favorites from Mama K.  Another crockpot adventure so very easy and hands off once you've got all the ingrediants.  So here's the quick rundown for the imfamous beer french dips....

4-5#  rump roast
1 can beer
10 beef boulion cubes
2 whole garlic cloves
1 onion
1 tsp  Oregano
1-2 bay leaves
salt/pepper
2 T sugar
Put all ingredients in crock pot and fill to top with water. Cook 6-8 hours on high.
Remove from crock pot and wrap in foil.
Keep juice warm for dipping.
Remove roast from foil and shred with a fork.
Serve on wheat rolls with 2% pepperjack cheese melted on top.
I used a 2 lb roast and cooked it on high for 5 hours and it turned out perfect....here's the end result.  So good we didnt even need sides :)
