TANGY BARBECUE SANDWICHES

This is adapted from a crockpot cookbook I have. The original recipe contained water and cooked on high. We found that the meat is better cooked on low, and that the addition of the water makes it too soupy. We enjoy this on onion rolls from the bakery of our local grocery store. Sometimes we even spread the rolls with garlic butter and toast them under the broiler before loading with the meat. Great with Recipe #71203, #71203 or my Recipe #247747, #247747.

Time 8h10m

Yield 14-18 sandwiches, 14-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups celery, chopped (I dice this pretty fine, as I'm not a big fan of celery and don't want to find recognizeable chunks )
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup ketchup
1 cup barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt (I usually omit this)
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I usually just throw in a healthy spoonful of the jarred minced garlic)
3 -4 lbs boneless chuck roast (trim any visible fat off first, to avoid having it liquified in your sandwich later)
14 -18 hamburger buns
pickle (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except roast, buns, and pickles in crock pot. Mix well.
  • Add roast. Roll the roast around to coat with the other ingredients.
  • Cover. Cook on Low 8-10 hours.
  • Remove roast. Cool enough to shred meat with two forks. Depending on the direction of the grain of the meat, you may want to cut into smaller pieces with a knife before shredding. The last time I made this, I had very long shreds of meat that didn't stay on the bun very well when I bit into it, because the grain ran weird on the roast, and I just shredded it anyway.
  • Return meat to sauce. Heat well.
  • Serve on buns with pickles, if desired.

TANGY BARBECUE BEEF SANDWICHES (SLOW COOKER)



Tangy Barbecue Beef sandwiches (slow cooker) image

This is a go to recipe that I use often when having a gathering. I found this recipe years ago in Taste of Home. The sauce makes these sandwiches! The beef shreds easily and everyone just loves the taste. This will serve up to 20 so it is a great large crowd recipe. Or make it and freeze some for later.

Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR THE SAUCE:
3 c chopped celery
1 c chopped onion
1 c ketchup
1 c barbeque sauce
1 c water
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
FOR THE BEEF:
3-4 lb boneless chuck roast trimmed of most fat
18-20 bakery buns (or your favorite buns)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all sauce ingredients together. Place in a large slow cooker.
  • 2. Add the roast. Cover and cook on high for 6-7 hours or until tender. I like to do this at least a day ahead of time. Let it cool. Shred the beef and return it to the sauce.
  • 3. Serve with a slotted spoon adding a heaping helping on a good bun! Yum! Crowd pleasing! :)
  • 4. NOTE: This time I almost doubled the meat. About 7 pounds of chuck roast and there was no need to double the sauce. Turned out perfect! And made enough to feed the hungry crowd! This is fairly inexpensive if you have alot of people to feed.
