Servings: 2 pounds BBQ Beef
Calories: 350kcal
Ingredients
- 2 pound Boneless Chuck Roast
- 2 teaspoons of Vegetable Oil for searing (or high heat cooking oil)
- 1 cup Barbecue Sauce divided (I used Jack Daniel's original in this recipe)
- 1½ cup Beef Stock or broth
- 1 Yellow Onion. peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper or to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your slow cooker with the lid cover on the high cook setting.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Next, add the vegetable oil to the skillet then transfer the beef roast to the skillet; sear the meat 3 to 4 minutes per side. NOTE: Allow the beef to naturally release from the bottom of the skillet. When it has finished searing, it will easily release.
- Combine ½ cup of the barbecue sauce with the beef stock by whisking them together then pour the mixture into the bottom of the slow cooker along with the sliced onion.
- Transfer the seared chuck roast to the Crock Pot, cover and reduce the cook setting to low; cook for 8 hours or until the tender beef easily shreds.
- Shred the beef with tongs or using two forks and remove any large fat pieces if there are any. Add the remaining barbecue sauce and stir to combine.
- Serve the barbecue shredded beef mixture on toasted buns with your favorite toppings and sides (see full post for ideas).
