Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs Beef Chuck Roast
  • 1 large Onion, quartered
  • 4 cloves Garlic, smashed
  • 1 cup Beef Broth
  • 1 cup Barbecue Sauce (your favorite style)
  • 1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 12 Slider Buns
  • Optional: Pickles or coleslaw for topping

Instructions

  1. Place the beef roast, onion quarters, and smashed garlic in a slow cooker.
  2. Pour the beef broth, barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and pepper over the roast.
  3. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or on high for 4 to 5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  4. Remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Discard any large pieces of fat.
  5. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir to coat thoroughly with the cooking liquid. Let it simmer for another 15 minutes to absorb the flavor.
  6. Split the slider buns. Place the bottom halves on a baking sheet.
  7. Spoon a generous amount of the shredded barbecue beef onto each bottom bun.
  8. Top with a pickle slice or a small amount of coleslaw, if desired. Place the top buns on.
  9. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the buns are lightly toasted and the filling is hot.
  10. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can make this recipe ahead of time; the flavor deepens overnight.
  • If you like a thicker sauce, remove the beef before the last 30 minutes of cooking and simmer the remaining liquid until it reduces.
  • Taste the shredded beef before adding extra salt; barbecue sauce often contains enough sodium.
