This tender beef has become a tasty tradition when I cook for our harvest crews and for neighboring ranchers who come to help us sort our cattle. Those hungry folks have been a good testing ground for recipes. They let me know if a new one I try is a "keeper". -Betty Sitzman, Wray, Colorado

Found this recipe in one of the Fix It And Forget It Crock Pot books. I changed up a few ingredients. I will post the recipe from the book and then the changed ingredients at the bottom. These were amazing my way, but sure the original recipe is great also.

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 lb chuck roast or round steak
2 Tbsp oil
1 c chopped onions
1/2 c celery
2 c beef broth, reduced sodium
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
3/4 c ketchup
4 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp vinegar
1/2 tsp chili powder
3 drops tabasco sauce
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
MY SUBSTITUTIONS
instead of browning i just place my meat in the crock pot with slices of onion and the broth.
for the sauce i omitted chili powder for some special seasoning i had. no tabasco sauce, or worcestersire sauce.
i added bbq sauce and some molasses to my sauce.

Steps:

  • 1. The way I made it: place roast in crock pot with sliced onions & broth. Set for 6 hrs.
  • 2. Remove meat and get rid of any fat. Remove liquid from pot. Shred beef; set aside.
  • 3. Sauce: combine either the ones listed or the ones I used. Return meat to crock pot, pour sauce and mix well. Heat back up on low until ready to serve.
  • 4. Assemble each roll with a large scoop of meat and place coleslaw on top if you desire.
  • 5. For my coleslaw I bought the coleslaw in the bag and Marie's Coleslaw dressing in the produce department. Easy, fast & so good.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast is a great option because it's well-marbled and flavorful. Brisket is another good choice, but it's a bit leaner, so you may need to add some extra liquid to the slow cooker.
  • Brown the beef before cooking. This will help to develop its flavor and give it a nice crust.
  • Use a flavorful liquid. Beef broth, chicken broth, or even water can be used, but adding a little extra flavor with some Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, or barbecue sauce is a great idea.
  • Cook the beef on low for 8-10 hours. This will allow it to become tender and fall apart easily.
  • Shred the beef with two forks. This is the easiest way to get it into small pieces.
  • Serve the shredded beef on buns, tortillas, or over rice. You can also add your favorite toppings, such as cheese, sour cream, guacamole, or salsa.

Conclusion:

Making mile-high shredded beef is an easy and delicious way to enjoy a classic comfort food. With just a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker, you can have a tender, flavorful meal that the whole family will love.
