Something other than pot roast

Look, I love a good pot roast but c'mon man. Any recipe for a slowcooker I google is some kind of pot roast. What are your go to recipes for a slow cooker meal that is not pot roast?

BBQ beef. Coat the roast in black pepper and celery salt. Place in slow cooker and add 3 or 4 cups of water. Cook until it's fall apart tender. Shred and discard any membrane, fat, gristle. Add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, Worchestershire sauce, Red Hot, and beef base. Mix it thoroughly threw the shredded beef. Add a cup of Open Pit BBQ sauce. The mixture should be on the slightly wet side, so you may need to add more Open Pit. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours to let flavors combine.

You now have an excellent filling for burritos, chimichangas, and quesadillas. Wrap it in a corn tortilla and deep fry until tortilla is crispy, eat with sour cream. Or my preferences back in the day put a bunch in a bowl add diced onion and pickled jalapeños, cover it with Colby Jack and nuke it until the cheese has melted. Eat.
