Zesty and tangy! From "John Madden's Ultimate Tailgating"... this is a fabulous BBQ beef recipe for those Sunday or Monday Night Football parties, tailgating at the stadium, or just 'cause they're soooo good. Cook time doesn't include preparation of the roast.

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3 lbs beef roast, cooked,cooled and shredded (I like rump roast because it's not so greasy)
2 onions, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup minced celery
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
2 cups ketchup
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

Directions

1
In a large saucepan or small soup pot, brown onions in butter until tender.
2
Add all other ingredients including cooked and shredded beef.
3
Cover and cook over low heat for at least 2 hours, uncovering for the last 1/2 hour or so; or in a crock pot on low heat for 6 to 8 hours.
4
(I can't vouch for the crock pot method, but stovetop works just fine!).
5
Serve on buns or rolls.

I LOVE BBQ, and this is some of the BEST! Definitely the best I have ever fixed. We loved it! I made the roast in the crock pot so it would be nice and tender, and I used another reviewer's suggestion of using beef broth instead of water. Other than that, I made it exactly as directed. Thanks for the recipe! It will be going in my favorites.

Delicious! Made roast beef in crockpot and then used the liquid from that instead of water in the recipe, which I also made in the crockpot. Other than that, I followed the recipe. Made great sandwiches for today's football game! Thanks!

We loved this, but I, like others, did not follow the recipe. Used a bone-in chuck roast, browned in a Dutch over, then into oven with 2 cups of water, covered for 2 hours. I didn't have 2 c of ketchup, so used about 1 c plus some bbq sauce and an 8 oz can of tomato sauce. Skipped the Tabasco and used 1/2 t cayenne instead. Used only 1 T sugar and it was plenty sweet for us. Yum!

This was wonderful but I ended up making so many changes that I decided not to give it any stars as I wasn't sure how the original recipe would be. I am reviewing it anyway so I remember what I did for next time and so everyone can see how forgiving this recipe is. I had no ketchup so I planned to use plain tomato sauce. Therefore, I added 50% more cider vinegar, sugar and worcestershire sauce. I also added a bit of extra mustard. I was out of tabasco so I used about 2 tsp of Rooster hot pepper sauce. Then when I was about to add the tomato sauce I found half a bottle of Bullseye Barbeque sauce and ended up using that instead. So it had way more spice than this recipe called for but we thought it was amazing. We like things very spicy so I'm glad I made the changes. However you make this I'm sure it will be good. Thanks for sharing.
