BARBECUE BEEF ON BUNS (A FANTASTIC RECIPE!)



Barbecue Beef on Buns (A Fantastic Recipe!) image

My husband gives this recipe thumbs up with a 10 star rating. I hope this gives you an indication of just how good this barbecue beef is. DON'T LET THE LENGTH OF THIS RECIPE SCARE YOU-IT'S REALLY A VERY, VERY EASY RECIPE! I clipped the recipe out of our local Sunday newspaper several years ago. The recipe received such rave reviews they decided to run the recipe a second time. The barbecued beef must be refrigerated at least 8 hours before serving in order for the sauce flavors to absorb into the meat. You will find that the prepared bbq beef freezes extremely well, without sacrificing any flavor (see Note). One 4.16-pound chuck roast will give you approximately 15 servings (1/2 cup each).

Time 3h

Yield 14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs chuck roast, boneless (purchase a beef chuck roast)
2 1/2 cups hunt's brand ketchup
2 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon onion, very finely diced (I used 2 tablespoons)
8 hamburger buns (we like hoagie buns best- 1 cup barbecue beef fits nicely on 1 large hoagie bun or 1/2 cup for half )

Steps:

  • Place the chuck roast in a very large pot and cover with water. The water level must be at least 2 inches above the top surface of the roast. If you don't have a large enough pan a large soup pot will work, but the water level fills the pan over three-fourths full, and you will have lots of splatters on your stovetop (to alleviate this problem, cover your entire stovetop, except for the heating element you have your pan sitting on, with aluminum foil). It's imperative that you always keep the water level at least 2 inches above the roast. If you use a soup pot, add more water about every 30 minutes! When I cook the roast I USE A LID to partially cover the pot.
  • Bring the water to a boil, and cook for about 3 hours until the meat is tender. (I keep the heat a little lower than medium-high, which is a fairly strong boil. Recently I cooked a chuck roast weighing 4.16 pounds and it took 3 hour and 15 minutes, I'm sure the cooking time will vary according to the weight of the meat and how hard the meat boils).
  • Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce. BARBECUE SAUCE INSTRUCTIONS: Into a LARGE saucepan thoroughly combine the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, chili powder, vinegar, sugar, and onion. Cover and refrigerate for later use. Don't use a medium saucepan because the sauce gets so hot that it can pop out of the pan and can burn your hand.
  • When the roast is done, remove it from the water with a sharp meat fork and place it on a platter to cool slightly.
  • When the roast is cool enough to handle, shred the meat by hand (I shred the beef with a dinner fork, and then pull the larger pieces of meat apart with my fingers).
  • Remove the barbecue sauce from the refrigerator, and over high heat, stirring constantly, bring the sauce to a boil. Remove from heat and cool.
  • Pour the sauce over the meat, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours before serving in order for the sauce flavors to absorb into the meat.
  • When ready to serve, reheat the meat on the stove, in the microwave, or in an electric slow cooker.
  • Serve on buns.
  • Note: I freeze any meat that I don't use up within 3 to 4 days. I use fold-top plastic sandwich bags, placing 1/2 cup barbecue beef in each bag. I then, place all the little bags within a large freezer bag and place them in the freezer. One 4.16 pound beef chuck roast will give you approximately 15 servings (1/2 cup each).

BARBECUED ROAST BEEF ON A BUN



Barbecued Roast Beef on a Bun image

I'm going to show you one of my favorite methods for barbecuing relatively inexpensive cuts of beef. If you're wondering "how can it be barbecued, and roast beef?" don't worry about it, because we are not barbecuing or roasting-we are actually grilling. By using this technique, we can transform those cheaper cuts of beef into something absolutely gorgeous. Serve on buns with mayonnaise, pickle slices, and a drizzle of barbecue sauce.

Provided by Chef John

Time 16h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ pounds boneless top round steak
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
3 cloves garlic, minced
6 (2 ounce) hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Mix salt, sugar, pepper, and cayenne for dry rub together and coat beef well on both sides.
  • Place on a rack set on a sheet pan and refrigerate, uncovered, for 12 to 24 hours, flipping over halfway through.
  • Mix barbecue sauce, vinegar, mustard, turmeric, and garlic together for wet rub and reserve.
  • Transfer beef to a dish and pour 1/2 of the wet rub over top. Use two forks to poke the surface all over for about 1 minute. Turn beef over and repeat with remaining wet rub. Spoon any excess on the bottom over the top.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours.
  • Preheat a charcoal grill until the briquettes turn white and ashy. Remove meat from the refrigerator, uncover, and scrape off excess wet rub.
  • Grill over hot charcoal until blackened and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat reads 120 to 125 degrees F (49 to 52 degrees C), 7 to 10 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. Remove to a foil-lined plate, and quickly wrap up tightly in foil.
  • Let rest for at least 15 minutes, during which time the meat will finish cooking, and end up close to medium-rare.
  • Slice very thinly, toss in the meat drippings and juices left in the foil, and serve on buns.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: For a tender and juicy barbecue beef on buns, select cuts with good marbling, such as chuck roast, brisket, or flank steak.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef before cooking helps tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Use a marinade with acidic ingredients like vinegar or lemon juice to break down the meat fibers.
  • Cook the beef slowly: Barbecue beef on buns is best cooked slowly over low heat. This allows the meat to cook evenly and develop a rich, smoky flavor.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce: The barbecue sauce is a key component of this dish, so choose one that you enjoy the taste of. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Toast the buns: Toasting the buns before assembling the sandwiches adds a nice crispy texture.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Once the sandwiches are assembled, add your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.

Conclusion:

Barbecue beef on buns is a classic American dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable barbecue beef on buns that will be enjoyed by everyone.
