Friday night movie night is our kids most FAVORITE weekly activity. Usually we order or make pizza have a carpet picnic and watch a movie together as a family. This week Marc and I had decided to watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas. I thought it would be so fun to have a dinner to go along with the movie. I made Roast Beast Sandwiches, Who Pudding, Who Hash, Grinch Punch and Mount Crumpit Cupcakes. Here are some recipes I used. I think this will be a great tradition for our family. Next year I would like to add on, maybe create a more whimsical dessert...The possibilities are endless!
Roast Beast Sandwiches
Ingredients
1 2-4 pound roast
1 package onion soup mix
1 bottle Weber Original BBQ Sauce

Pretzel buns or other desired sandwich roll
Combine roast, soup mix and half bottle of BBQ sauce in a crock pot. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Slice pretzel buns in half, top on side with cheese and place under broiler until cheese is melted. Pile the roast beast on and ENJOY!
