Slow-Cooker BBQ Beef Sandwiches
Slow-Cooker BBQ Beef Sandwiches
(NOTE: I made this a while ago and stumbled on the recipe. It is great for the slow cooker. I am trying an alternative today and will post that as well. I needed the alternative when I could not find this recipe until after I got the slow cooker started!)
5 tbs dark brown sugar
3/4 tsp black pepper
2 (1-lb) flank steaks
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup tomato paste
3 tbs Worcestershire sauce
3 tbs molasses
3 tbs cider vinegar
1 tbs chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
To serve:
submarine rolls (serves 10)
Red onion slices (optional)
Dill pickle slices (optional)
1. Combine 1 tbs brown sugar and pepper; rub over both sides of steaks.
2. Combine remaining brown sugar, onion, and next 9 sauce ingredients (through salt) in a slow cooker.
3. Add flank steaks and turn to coat
4. Cook on high setting for one hour and then low setting for 7 hours. (NOTE: I think I did this when I cooked it before. However, if you are doing this in the morning before heading off to work, you might need to adjust this a bit. I am sure that it would work with 9 hours on low, but I have not tried it!)
5. Shred the steaks with forks and mix in the sauce (it might be easier to remove the steaks, shred and return to the slow cooker.
6. Serve as desired (rolls with onions and pickles if you care).
sauce.)
