Creating a tantalizingly sweet and smoky barbecue beef sandwich requires a carefully crafted recipe that combines the perfect blend of flavors. This delectable sandwich starts with tender and juicy beef that's been slow-cooked in a rich and savory barbecue sauce. The key to creating this sandwich is in selecting the right cut of beef and preparing it with the appropriate cooking method to achieve a tender and flavorful result. Once the beef is cooked to perfection, it's time to create the smoky barbecue sauce that will coat the beef and infuse it with a delicious blend of spices and herbs. The final step is assembling the sandwich, which involves layering the tender beef on a toasted bun and adding a generous helping of coleslaw, pickles, and onions.

SWEET AND SMOKY BARBEQUE SAUCE
Use this toward the end of cooking as you would for any BBQ meat such as pork, ribs, or chicken. I have even used it on beef and hamburgers, sausages, hot dogs, or anything you want, for the most part. I use it on everything from ribs to roasts to hamburgers to hot dogs. Even goes good with a good old classic grilled cheese sandwich. This is a great all-round BBQ sauce. Use right away or cool to room temperature, transfer to jars or containers, and refrigerate. The sauce will keep for several months in the fridge.

Steps:
- Season both sides of the roast with the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and minced garlic.
- In a dutch oven on your stove top heat the oil on medium-high heat. Add the roast and lightly brown each side. This takes about one minute on each side.
- Pour in half of the bottle of beer.Put the cap back on you will use the rest later. Top the roast with the brown sugar. Add the sliced onions.( These will cook down and the kids won't even see them.) Put the lid on and cook on medium for 1 1/2 hours.Make sure the juices are at a low simmer.
- Take off the lid and pour in the other half of the beer, turn the roast over, mix everything around real good and put the lid back on. Cook on medium-low for another 1 1/2 hours.The juices should be at a lower simmer now.
- When the time is up check tenderness. The meat should pull apart with a fork easily.
- Remove the roast from the pan to a plate if it is done.
- The onions should be cooked down to practically nothing and there should be no more than a cup of juices left in the pan. Add the bbq sauce to the onions and juice in the pan.
- On the plate cut the roast across the grain at about every 3 inches. This will make the roast pull apart into smaller pieces. Pull the meat apart with a large fork into shreds.
- Add the meat to the sauce mixture and mix very well. The meat will absorb all of the sauce quickly.Let it sit on very low heat for about 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: A well-marbled cut of beef, such as brisket or chuck roast, will yield the most tender and flavorful results.
- Don't overcook the beef: Beef that is cooked too long will become dry and tough. Cook the beef until it is tender but still slightly pink in the center.
- Use a good quality BBQ sauce: The BBQ sauce is what gives the beef its flavor, so it's important to use a good quality sauce. Look for a sauce that is thick and flavorful, with a good balance of sweet, sour, and smoky flavors.
- Let the beef rest before slicing: After the beef is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful sandwich.
- Serve the beef on a toasted bun: A toasted bun will help to hold the sandwich together and add an extra layer of flavor.
Conclusion:
SweetSmoky BBQ Beef for Sandwiches is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a summer cookout or potluck. The beef is tender and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and smoky flavors. The sandwich is best served on a toasted bun with your favorite sides.
