Barbecue Beef Sandwiches


This turns out delicious! It's from Betty Crocker's Slow Cooker Cookbook (pg 96)

  • 3-pound beef boneless chuck roast
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup apricot preserves
  • 1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 12 kaiser or hamburger buns, split
  1. Trim excess fat from beef. cut beef into 4 pieces. Place beef in 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.
  2. Mix remaining ingredients except buns; pour over beef. Cover and cook on low heat setting 7 to 8 hours or until beef is tender
  3. Remove beef to cutting board; cut into thin slices; return to cooker (Rather than try to slice the beef, just "shred" it so it's like pulled beef)
  4. Cover and cook on low heat setting 20 to 30 minutes longer or until beef is hot. Fill buns with beef mixture.

Chelsea made this recipe from some leftover roast I had and it turned out wonderful. We have eaten it the last two nights and we have enough for one more night! It's hard to cook for just three!

I ended up freezing some of the left overs when I made it. They heated up well a few weeks later.

Well, we didn't quite make it as the Robertson Family Singers: let's see how we do with cooking...
