RECIPES

ingredients:

Beef:

• 1 Chuck Roast, about 3-4 lbs
• 2 tbsp of Tennessee Smoke Seasoning or your favorite BBQ seasoning
• 1 tbsp of Canola Oil

Spicy Bourbon BBQ Sauce:

• 3/4 cup of Ketchup
• 1/2 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar
• 4 oz of Bourbon
• 1.5 tbsp of Hot Sauce
• 1 tbsp of Brown Sugar
• 1/2 tbsp of Garlic Paste
• 1/2 tbsp of Worcestershire
• Salt, to taste
  

PREPARATION:

1. Cube your chuck roast into 1” size cubes and place in a bowl. Lather with canola oil and then season with Tennessee Smoke Seasoning or your favorite BBQ seasoning. Place the cubes onto a baking tray with about ½” separation between each cube. Place in the fridge for 1 hour to set, then let come to room temperature 15 minutes before cooking.
2. Preheat a grill or smoker using a two zone fire with Cowboy Charcoal to 275F. Add some hickory chunks or chips for added smoke flavor.
3. Place the beef onto the smoker to cook for about 1.5 hours until they begin to soften. As the beef smokes, heat up a medium high fire for the BBQ Sauce. Add a skillet with the bourbon to simmer for 30 seconds. Next, add the rest of the ingredients for the BBQ sauce and let simmer until thickened. Once warm and well incorporated, pull the BBQ sauce off the heat to cool.
4. After 1.5 hours on the smoker, pull the beef off and place into a medium size foil bin. Top the burnt ends with the BBQ sauce and mix around. Cover the bin with aluminum foil and place back on the smoker to cook for another 2.5 hours. Add more BBQ sauce if needed so that there is a decent amount of liquid in order to break down the burnt ends.
5. Once the burnt ends are tender and can easily break apart, pull them off and let cool for 10 minutes. Toss the cooled burnt ends in some of the foil bins sauce, season with a little more BBQ seasoning and enjoy!
