For an extra layer of flavor, consider searing the chuck roast in the skillet before placing it in the oven. The barbecue beef freezes exceptionally well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers or bags. It will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. For a milder flavor, omit it altogether. Serve with your favorite coleslaw and potato salad for a complete barbecue experience.

01 Step
Recipe View Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Place the chuck roast in a roasting pan and cover tightly. Cook in the preheated oven until the beef is incredibly tender and easily shreds with a fork, approximately 2 hours.
03 Step
Recipe View While the roast is cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
04 Step
Recipe View Stir in the chili sauce and distilled white vinegar. Then, fill the empty chili sauce bottle with water, shake well, and pour the water into the skillet. (This ensures you get every last bit of chili sauce flavor!)
05 Step
Recipe View Add the minced garlic, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 15-20 minutes.
06 Step
Recipe View Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before shredding with two forks. (This helps retain moisture.)
07 Step
Recipe View Transfer the shredded beef to the skillet with the sauce. Stir to coat the beef evenly and simmer for another 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve hot on your favorite toasted hamburger buns.
