Ingredients:  
4 medium sweet onions
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. worcesershire sauce
2 tbsp. brown sugar

Directions:
Directions:
Turn the slow cooker on HIGH and place the butter on the bottom. While it heats up, thinly slice the onions and mince the garlic. Dump them in the slow cooker with the butter, and add in the balsamic vinegar, worcestershire sauce and brown sugar. Stir well to coat and place the lid on. Cook on HIGH for 1 hour, or until the onions are soft and starting to brown around the edges. Dump in the flour and stir well to coat. Let sit for 5 minutes. (If you want to start prepping this meal the night before, this a perfect place to stop and place the crockpot insert in the fridge. Continue in the morning.)

Place the roast down in th onions and add in the rest of the ingredients, except for the bread and cheese. Cook for 8-12 hours, until the meat is falling apart tender. Remove the roast, shred it with 2 forks and then return it to the pot.

To serve: Preheat the broiler. Ladle the soup into oven-proof bowls, filling them about 3/4 full. Place a thick slice of french bread in the top of each bowl and cover generously with shredded cheese. Broil for a few minutes until the cheese is all melted and golden.
