How to Make Bbq Beef On A Bun
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Place a 3-4 lb beef roast in a roasting pan. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 cup water, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Cover the roasting pan and cook for 3-4 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender and easily shreds.
- While the beef cooks, prepare the BBQ sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add 1 large onion, chopped, and cook until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Add 1 cup ketchup and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in 1/2 cup packed brown sugar and 1/4 cup molasses. Taste and add 1-2 tsp more brown sugar if needed.
- Stir in 2 tbsp lemon juice and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Shred the cooked beef and add it to the BBQ sauce. Simmer for another 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Serve the BBQ beef on hamburger buns. Top with cheddar cheese slices and thinly sliced onions, if desired.
