Categories     Dinner     Lunch

Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (3-lb.) boneless chuck roast
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup light brown sugar, divided
1 ½ tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon salted butter
12 ounces beer (such as lager or pilsner)
1 ½ cups ketchup
½ cup Dijon mustard
⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Optional, for serving: sandwich buns

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275° F.
  • Mix the flour with ¼ cup of the brown sugar, smoked paprika, kosher salt, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and cumin on a sheet of waxed paper. Pat the roast dry; dredge it in the flour mixture on all sides.
  • Heat butter and olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it is hot but not smoking. Brown the meat to give it nice color, but don't let the sugars burn (about 3 minutes per side).
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add beer. Cover with the lid and bake in the 275° F oven for 2 hours.
  • After 2 hours, remove the lid and continue baking for another 45 minutes - 1 hour, or until the meat is fall-apart tender.
  • Remove beef from Dutch oven and let rest while you prepare the barbecue sauce.

Provided by Allison Fletcher Acosta

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Beef

Time 10h35m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup ketchup
½ cup beer
½ cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 drops liquid smoke flavoring
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ cup brown sugar
4 pounds beef brisket
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
16 potato buns, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place the onion and garlic into a large slow cooker. Pour in the ketchup, beer, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke; set aside. Combine the salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, oregano, and brown sugar until evenly blended. Rub the spice mixture all over the beef brisket. Place the brisket into the slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining spice mixture over top.
  • Cover, and cook on Low until the beef is easily shredded with two forks, 10 to 12 hours.
  • Remove the beef from the slow cooker, and place into a large bowl. Ladle the fat from the remaining sauce in the slow cooker and discard. Pour about 2 cups of the sauce from the slow cooker into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water, and stir into the simmering sauce. Cook and stir 5 to 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Meanwhile, shred the meat into small pieces using two forks.
  • Pour the thickened sauce and remaining sauce from the slow cooker into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the sauce right in the slow cooker.
  • Stir the shredded beef and pureed sauce together in the slow cooker. Use tongs to serve the beef on the potato buns.
