Crockpot Shredded BBQ Beef Sandwiches

Sweet, smoky and tangy, these shredded beef sandwiches are the perfect comfort food for those cool nights or a summer potluck. 

 

Ingredients:

2-3 Tbsp packed light brown sugar 

2-1/2 tsp paprika 

2 tsp garlic powder 

1-1/2 tsp kosher salt 

1 tsp black pepper 

3-4 lb beef chuck roast 

2 Tbsp Olive Cart Caramelized Onion Mustard 

2/3 cup beef broth 

1 tsp Olive Cart Smokehouse Balsamic 

4 Tbsp butter (sliced) 

1 Jar Olive Cart Michigan Sweet Cherry BBQ Balsamic

 

Directions:

Combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl and set aside.  Add chuck roast to slow cooker, drizzle with the mustard and rub it into the meat.

Sprinkle with half the rub.  Rub into the meat, flip the roast over and rub the remaining rub into the meat.  Pour in beef broth and Smokehouse Balsamic, being careful to pour around the roast, not over it.  Top with the butter slices, cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.

Remove roast from slow cookier to a large cutting board and shred, discarding large fat pieces.  Drain the cooking juices from the slow cooker and return the shredded beef to the slow cooker.  Add 1 jar of the Michigan sweet Cherry Balsamic BBQ sauce, cover and cook on high for 30 minutes.

Serve on ciabatta rolls or buns and enjoy with your favorite side!
