Sweet and Tangy Barbecue Beef- this recipe is a different way to turn a chuck roast into a super flavorful meal. With a short ingredient list, it is super easy to make. Such a great combination of flavors.

 
Pickling spice gives the beef a wonderful flavor and ketchup and a little apple cider vinegar forms the base for a tasty sauce. This beef makes an awesome BBQ Beef Sandwich!
How To Make:
The beef gets cut in cubes, seasoned with salt and pepper and browned in some oil. The beef then braises in water for 1 hour in a 300 degree F oven. Next, all the flavors get added for another hour of cooking- ketchup, apple cider vinegar, dry mustard, and pickling spice. You’ll need to tie the pickling spice up in some cheesecloth so that it can be fished out and discarded at the end of the cooking time.
 
What is pickling spice"
Pickling spice is made up of mustard seeds, whole allspice, coriander seeds, cloves, bay leaves and a few other spices. It gives the beef some of the flavor that corned beef has, but it is combined with a tangy tomato sauce which I love.
Once the beef is cooked, it is easily shredded. How much you shred it is up to you. The more you shred it, the more the sauce coats it, but it’s kind of nice to have some bigger chunks for texture.
You can serve this Barbecue Beef over rice or mashed potatoes or make sandwiches with it.
