Beef Preparation

Toasted Buns

Method

Beef Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a slow cooker, place the chuck roast. Add the beef broth, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, paprika, and bay leaves.

  2. 2

    Slow Cook

    Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and shreds easily.

  3. 3

    Shred the Beef

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir to combine with the juices.

Toasted Buns

  1. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    While the beef is cooking, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread butter on the cut sides of each bun.

  2. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Place the buns on a baking sheet, buttered side up, and toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.

Serving

  1. 6

    Assemble

    To serve, place a generous amount of shredded beef on each toasted bun. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley.

  2. 7

    Serve with Au Jus

    Ladle some of the juices from the slow cooker into small bowls for dipping. Serve the sandwiches hot with the au jus on the side.
