Adrienne's Overnight Barbecued Beef Sandwiches

“Growing up, my Mom used to make barbecued beef in the crock pot and it always tasted so good. It's definitely comfort food for me. After I got out on my own, I was determined to make barbecue beef just like hers, so I tried lots of recipes and finally came up with one of my own. I was so pleased! I called her to tell her and she laughed. She had always just used a bottle of barbecue sauce! We still laugh about that and now I've had to give her my recipe! HA!”

Born and raised Southerner so you know I'm big on barbecue, and picking up the cooking hobby but not so skilled yet, and I just wanted to thank you for posting your recipe. Easy to prepare, easy to shop for, and absolutely amazing. It was the hit of our LSU tailgate this week, and I'm pulling it out for one of the bigger games later this season. I may have even added a little too much liquid smoke and Worcestershire, and didn't finely-chop the onions enough, but it still came out amazing. Thanks again!

I have to admit I was sceptical about this recipe, it has a lot of ingredients, then while it was cooking it smelled great, but looked like a chunk of beef in soup: very watery. But I continued on and followed the directions shredding the beef and thickening the sauce. It was absolutely delish! I might add a few more drops of liquid smoke, as we prefer a more mesquite taste, but I wouldn't change anything else. Got rave review by the family as well, and they were actually looking forward to the leftovers. Definate keeper - Thank You!!!

Delicious! Served this for my son's 13th birthday to family & friends. Grandma & Auntie asked for the recipe :) We froze some & did add a splash of bbq sauce to liven up the flavor before serving, a few weeks later. Thanks for a new family favorite!

Excellent choice. I modified this recipe in the following manner. I marinated the meet for 3 days, then smoked it for 12 hours between 200-220. I wrapped meet in tinfoil for an hour and kept it in warming oven while I made the sauce. From the fat drippings I caramelized one large onion, then added chicken broth, and the remaining marinade and boiled that down to a gravy. Note, I didn't use corn starch because it would have reduced the flavor of the marinade.

This got great reviews from everyone that tried it. I substituted an old beef roast for the brisket and also whisked the cornstarch right into the crockpot at the end (not sure how much I used -- I just kept dumping in a little at a time 'til I had a nice thick consistency). This made a lot that way and was quite tasty.

Very good. I'm not very experienced at all and found this recipe very easy and the family loved it.

This made some really great barbecue. Great tangy smokey flavor. Nice blend of flavors and it was a hit with my family. Both my husband and son ate seconds. I used a chuck roast, hickory liquid smoke and substituted dried minced onion and some onion powder for the real stuff. The only change I would make is to thicken the sauce more as it needed more body, maybe more cornstarch? I loved that this used a homemade sauce and not some bottled stuff, thanks Adrienne, we really liked this barbecue! This is a keeper.
