BBQ Beef



Wish I took a picture. Wish I could replay the smell emanating from the pot. This is a great way to feed a lot of people without taking out a loan.

I strayed from the original directions by grilling the chuck steaks first. The original recipe called for browning them in the pot. I like to put a good scald on the meat first with the grill.

Basically the beef simmers for a long time in a home made BBQ sauce. You shred the beef and cook a bit more. Think pulled pork, only beef with lots of good sauce, can be served alone or on a roll.

2-3 lbs boneless chuck roast trimmed of extra fat
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 TBL Vegetable Oil

2 TBL Lemon Juice
2 TBL Apple Cider Vinegar
3/4 Cup Water
2 Cups Ketchup
3 TBL Worcester Sauce
2 TBL Brown Sugar
1 to 2 TBL Chili Powder
1 TBL Prepared Mustard
salt/pepper

Brown Meat.
While browning in a large sauce pan that is big enough to hold meat and sauce, saute the onion and celery in oil. Add remaining ingredients. Add Meat to Pot. Simmer for 3 hours. Remove meat, shred, and simmer for another 2 hours in sauce.
