Place in the middle of the crockpot with the raw veggies along the side. Fill with 64oz of Low Sodium V8, (or use 48 oz and add 2-3 cups water until the liquid covers or nearly covers the roast). Add the beef bouillon cubes to the mixSet crockpot to Low for 8-10 hours (or High 6 hours). About 30min from serving you'll want to take out the roast and shred it removing any extra gristle or fat, and add back to the pot with the frozen mixed veggies. Cook until warm the veggies should be soft and the meat should fall apart. Fish out the peppercorns if you can find em (using a fork to skim them out helps), or simply keep an eye out at the bottom of your bowl.Add salt and pepper to the soup to taste. Tastes even better the second day and freezes well too!Assuming a 5 quart yeild, there would be 20 - 1cup servings in every pot.2 servings and a slice of toast makes a filling lowcal meal.
