How to Make Badazz Barbecue Beef
- In a large skillet (12-inch), heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 2 pounds of beef stew meat, 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 4 cloves garlic (minced). Sauté until the beef is browned and the vegetables are softened, about 10-12 minutes.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare the seasoning mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon seasoning salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 2 tablespoons white vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon paprika, and 1 tablespoon chili powder.
- Once the beef is browned, pour the seasoning mixture over the beef and vegetables. Stir well to coat.
- Cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can of crushed tomatoes, 1 cup of your favorite Badazz BBQ sauce (or a store-bought alternative), 1 teaspoon liquid smoke, and 1/2 cup chili sauce (or ketchup).
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker (6-quart). Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender.
- Serve on buns, over rice, or with your favorite sides.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
