There are probably thousands of recipes on the internet for slow cooker BBQ beef. So why another? Well, for my money this is the only recipe I need. It’s the ingredients of the sauce that make this worth the time and well, some trouble. Sure, I could fire up my Weber smoker and cook a beef roast (just as good as brisket but cheaper) all day and I often do, but sometimes the slow cooker will do just fine too!

Slow Cooker BBQ Beef

Much Better Than I Ever Expected

Of course slow cooker BBQ beef is as tender as you’d expect. And juicy. And the sauce, oh the sauce. Like I said, it’s what makes this worth making time and time again. I like to make extra and freeze it. It’s nice to have on hand for a quicker BBQ sandwich dinner, BBQ beef baked potatoes, and one of my favorites, BBQ nachos.

Also try my slow cooker roadhouse ribs.

Instructions

  • Place the chuck roast in your slow cooker.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the ketchup, onion, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, paprika, pepper and celery seeds.
  • Pour sauce over meat. Cover and cook on low or until beef shred easily, about 9 hours.
  • Carefully transfer the meat to a cutting board and shred with a fork or chop with a knife. Note: I place my cutting board inside a rimmed baking sheet so that the juices don't run all over my counter top.
  • Transfer the juices from the slow cooker to a sauce pan. Bring to a slow simmer over medium heat.
  • Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl or glass. Whisk into the sauce and stir until thickened.
  • Return the meat to the slow cooker. Add the sauce.
  • Serve over buns or bread.
