Shredded Roast Beef Poboys Recipes

Steps:

• .Wash Roast in cold water.
• Season roast lightly with your seasoning of choice then place it in a hot skillet and brown on each side! (Do not season to much as the beefer upper is pretty salty already).
• Place the roast in a large crockpot and pour the whole 4 oz bottle of B-V The Beefer Upper Broth and Sauce on top of the roast!
• Pour enough water in the crock pot to cover the roast completely.
• Cook for 8 hours on medium heat.
• Remove roast from the crock pot and remove the fat and shred with a fork.
• Pour gravy into a medium pot and add mixture of cornstarch and water to the gravy and simmer until desired consistency! ( make sure that you mix the cornstarch and water in a cup before pouring and be sure not to add to much because it will make the gravy slimy if you do).
• After the gravy is ready add your shredded roast!
• If you choose to add barbq sauce do not use all the gravy as it will be to watery.

Steps:

• For the roast beef: Preheat the oven to 270 degrees F or to 250 degrees F on a convection setting.
• Combine the cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, basil and thyme in a bowl and incorporate. Completely cover the roast with the dry rub ingredients.
• Combine the beef broth, beer and Worcestershire in a large roasting pan, then add the bay leaves, carrots, onions and celery all around the edges. Put the roast in the center. Cover pot tightly with 2 layers of aluminum foil. Bake "slow and low" until it is soft, 8 to 10 hours.
• Remove the roast and shred with a fork. Save all the meat juices in the pan for the gravy.
• For the debris gravy: Melt the butter, then add the flour a little at a time, whisking constantly. Cook, whisking, until a blonde roux forms, about 10 minutes.
• Put roast beef drippings in a pot with 2 cups shredded beef and bring to a boil, then reduce heat. (Add canned beef stock if you want it thinner.) Slowly whisk in the blonde roux and cook, whisking, until it achieves desired gravy thickness.
• New Orleans-style po'boy sandwiches are traditionally served "dressed". That means lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and mayonnaise (the eggier the better!).
• You will need toasted and split French baguettes (hollow them out to make more room for the beef). Fully dress those suckers! (Add onions if you like.)
• Also, a good Louisiana-style hot sauce is recommended. Put lots of hot shredded roast beef on the sandwich and top it generously with piping hot "debris gravy". Eat it with an ice-cold beer for the authentic experience. Bon appetit!

Steps:

• Cut 5 slits in the roast and stuff with the garlic cloves. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the oil. Sear the roast on all sides until a rich brown color. Add the hot water, bay leaves and bell pepper and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat and simmer until the roast is very tender, about 3 hours. During cooking, you want to make sure you keep the level of liquid that you started with. You may have to add up to another 1 1/2 cups water. Do not let the liquid cook out.
• Transfer the roast to a cutting board to rest. Discard the bay leaves and bell pepper from the pot. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, whisking, until thickened. You may need to add more flour until you reach the desired thickness of gravy. Be careful not to add too much, since it will thicken faster than you may expect. Season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the bread down the center and warm slightly in the oven. Thinly slice the roast. Spoon the gravy over the cut sides of the bread and spread with some mayonnaise. Load the bottom half with sliced beef and top with lettuce, tomatoes and pickles. Cover with the top half of the bread. Cut into 6 pieces and wrap with butcher paper or parchment paper.

Steps:

• 1. In a small bowl combine: kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and oregano.
• 2. After trimming fat off meat (which we will use later use), rub all sides of meat with the dry rub ingredients. Allow to sit on meat about 15 minutes or until desired.
• 3. In a heavy bottom skillet (or insert of slow cooker) heat olive oil. Place roast in pan and sear all sides until nice dark crust is formed (about 3-5 minutes each side). When finished remove from heat to a plate and cover with foil.
• 4. In a food processor combine: onions, garlic cloves, parsley and mushrooms and puree until smooth.
• 5. Add mushroom-onion mixture to pan (or slow cooker insert) and cook about 7-10 minutes until liquid has evaporated. If using the slow cooker insert remove mixture from insert for now.
• 6. In pan used to cook these ingredients, deglaze with 8 oz amber ale and 8 oz water. Add demi-glaze and bouillon cubes. Stir to combine.
• 7. In bottom of slow cooker insert place trimmed fat (fat side down).
• 8. Add mushroom-onion mixture on top of trimmed fat and beef on top of mixture. Add any juices from meat to slow cooker as well. Finally, pour liquid from pan in slow cooker. Cook on high 6-7 hours until meat is tender.
• 9. When meat has finished cooking. Remove meat to plate and cover with foil.
• 10. In a sauce pan melt butter, when it begins to bubble add flour and stir to create a roux. It should be between a blond and brown roux.
• 11. Strain liquid from meat and skim any fat or oil off top. Combine strained liquid, vinegar and about a cup of water with roux. Stir well. When well mixed, it can be combined with mushroom mixture and any meat that fell off and fat as desired.
• 12. Shred meat.
• 13. Combine shredded meat with gravy in slow cooker, cook another 15 mins. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• 14. To assemble sandwich: place desired about of mayonnaise on bread, place layer of meat and gravy, followed by lettuce, thinly sliced tomatoes, pickles, and hot sauce if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Cut french loaf in half lengthwise and place in oven for 4-5 minutes or until LIGHTY toasted. Spread butter on both the inside halves of toasted bread. It should melt on hot bread.
• In a sauce pan whisk the vegetable oil with the flour on med-high heat for about 5 minutes or until just lightly browned. Add your beef au jus to your roux and whisk until it thickens slightly- about 1 minute. Should only be thick enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon, add more stock/au jus to thin out a bit if needed.
• Toss sliced roast beef with thin gravy until evenly coated and heated through.
• Spread mayo on top inside half of buttered and toasted french loaf.
• Place dill pickles on bottom inside half of toasted buttered french loaf.
• Evenly place roasted beef on top of dill pickles with tongs.
• Add lettuce and tomato.
• You may also add american or swiss cheese and or hot sauce.
• Cut into 1/4s. Serve with kettle chips such as Zapps.
• Hint- you can make ANY poboy be it fried oyster, fried shrimp, fried catfish, grilled chicken breast, french fries, chicken parm, meatloaf, hamburger, smoked sausage you name it! Just follow the bread toasting and buttering instructions, and make sure you "dress" it with lettuce, tomato, mayo and dill pickles! You can eat it "undressed" also. It's more about the type of bread and using cajun/creole recipes of fried seafood or meats in the main filling. The traditional cheeses used are swiss, american, and provolone. Hot sauce and cocktail sauce for fried seafood. Ketchup is often used as a condiment also.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place flour in a large, wide bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. Add beef, dust well on all sides and shake off excess.
• Place a large, heavy Dutch oven or roasting pan with a lid over medium-high heat. Add enough oil to cover the bottom and heat until shimmering. Working in batches, add beef and sear well on all sides. Transfer beef to a platter and set aside.
• Add celery, onions, peppers, carrots and garlic to pan; if necessary, add more oil. Sauté until vegetables are tender and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add wine and 3 cups water. Stir, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add rosemary, thyme, bay leaf and parsley. Stir well, add beef, and stir again to mix well.
• Cover, and transfer to oven. Cook until beef is very tender, about three hours. Transfer beef to a deep platter and keep warm. Remove and discard bay leaf. Using a hand-held immersion blender or stand blender, purée vegetables and any remaining bits of meat in pan juices to make sauce. Cut beef into slices. Slice each bread loaf in half lengthwise and crosswise, spread one side with mayonnaise, thickly layer in meat, wet with gravy, and top with lettuce, tomatoes and pickles.
