Notes

For richer flavor, sear the chuck roast before adding it to the slow cooker. Feel free to substitute pork shoulder for the roast or use different cheeses based on preference. Leftover filling can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days, or frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, warm gently with a splash of water or BBQ sauce for moisture.
