How to Make Arm Roast Sloppy Joes
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, brown a 3-4 lb boneless beef arm roast in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear on all sides for about 5 minutes total.
- Add 1 cup of beef broth, 1/2 cup ketchup, and 1/4 cup brown sugar to the pot. Cover tightly and transfer to the preheated oven. Simmer for 1.5 hours.
- Remove from oven, add 1 large onion (chopped) and 4 cloves garlic (minced). Stir well. Return to the oven, cover, and continue simmering for another hour, or until the beef is fork-tender.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Using two forks, shred the beef into coarse pieces.
- Stir in 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional). Bring to a gentle simmer on the stovetop.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- While the sauce simmers, lightly butter hamburger buns and grill or toast them until lightly golden brown. Pile the shredded beef generously onto the buns and serve immediately.
