Ingredients

Method

  1. Season the beef with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat olive oil and brown the meat on all sides.
  2. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour in BBQ sauce and enough water to cover the meat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours.
  4. Shred the beef with two forks. In the same pot, cook the onions until caramelized, about 10 minutes.
  5. Toast the buns and assemble the sandwich with beef, onions, and extra BBQ sauce if desired.
  6. For whole cuts, check a minimum internal temperature of 63°C (145°F), then rest for at least 3 minutes before serving.
