Barbecue Beef Sandwiches
- 1 (4 lb) chuck roast
- 34 cup water
- 3 onions, chopped roughly
- garlic powder
- salt
- pepper
- 24 small French rolls (or more)
- 1 cup prepared barbecue sauce
- 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce (or 1 cup ketchup plus 4 oz water)
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
- 1 12 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 14 cup sweet pickle juice
- 12 cup brown sugar
- Place roast in a roasting pan and season roast with garlic power, salt and pepper and cover with onions.
- Pour in water.
- Cover and roast at 300F for 45 minute per pound.
- (4 pounds takes about 3 hours).
- Note: Meat can also be cooked on the stove in a covered dutch oven over low heat.
- Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients in a pan.
- Whisk to blend well.
- Simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
- When meat is done it will be fork tender and easy to shred.
- Remove from heat/oven and place on a cutting board.
- Reserve onions.
- Stir onions into simmering barbecue sauce.
- Shred meat with two forks.
- It should be falling apart and easy to shred.
- Place meat in a large sauce pan and add BBQ sauce.
- Heat until warmed through.
- To serve, slice small holes or slits in french rolls and stuff with meat as a filling.
- Sometimes we just split the rolls horizontally, almost in half, and also add a slice of cheese.
- Stuffed, these sandwiches present well on a buffet platter.
