For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of smoked paprika to the sauce. Toast the sandwich buns for a better texture and to prevent them from getting soggy. Serve with your favorite coleslaw, potato salad, or pickles for a complete meal. The shredded beef is even better the next day, making it perfect for meal prepping. If you don't have eye of round roast, you can substitute with chuck roast.
