ADRIENNE'S OVERNIGHT BARBECUED BEEF SANDWICHES



Adrienne's Overnight Barbecued Beef Sandwiches image

Growing up, my Mom used to make barbecued beef in the crock pot and it always tasted so good. It's definitely comfort food for me. After I got out on my own, I was determined to make barbecue beef just like hers, so I tried lots of recipes and finally came up with one of my own. I was so pleased! I called her to tell her and she laughed. She had always just used a bottle of barbecue sauce! We still laugh about that and now I've had to give her my recipe!

CONTEST WINNING BARBECUED BEEF SANDWICHES



Contest Winning Barbecued Beef Sandwiches image

The great thing about this recipe-especially for non-cabbage lovers!-is that you can't taste the cabbage in the meat. Yet, at the same time, it adds a nice heartiness and moistness to it. I credit my mother for my love for cooking. My grandmother, too...I remember how she made barbecued beef on weekends when grandkids visited. Home for my husband, our daughter (she's 12) and me is a small village on the banks of the Mississippi River.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Brisket, chuck roast, and short ribs are all excellent choices for barbecue sandwiches. These cuts are tough, but they become tender and flavorful when cooked low and slow.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce. The barbecue sauce is what really makes the sandwich, so don't skimp on quality. Look for a sauce that is thick and flavorful, with a good balance of sweetness, smokiness, and spice.
  • Cook the beef until it is fall-apart tender. This can take several hours, but it is worth the wait. The longer the beef cooks, the more tender and flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the sandwiches on toasted buns. This will help to hold the sandwich together and add a little extra flavor.
  • Top the sandwiches with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include coleslaw, pickles, and onions.

Conclusion:

Barbecue beef sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can make barbecue beef sandwiches that will rival anything you can get at a restaurant. So fire up your grill and get cooking!
