Italian Beer and Balsamic Shredded Beef

 

Italian Beer and Balsamic Shredded Beef

Ingredients

  • 3.5 to 4 lbs boneless chuck roast or chuck boneless short ribs
  • 8 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (suggested: Olivia’s Garlic or Portobello Garlic)
  • 2 packets Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix
  • 1 cup cup Olivia’s Traditional Aged Balsamic Vinegar
  • 2 Beers

Instructions

  • Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Sear meat on all sides in plenty of olive oil. Add olive oil as needed to complete searing all the meat. Place the meat into a slow cooker or large pot on the stove.
  • Drizzle all meat on both sides with a thin layer of Traditional Aged Balsamic Vinegar.
  • Sprinkle 2 Packets of Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix over all the meat.
  • Pour in one to two beers of choice. Add water if needed. You want enough liquid to just cover the meat.
  • Optional: add two to three garlic cloves or a little garlic paste.
  • Set crock pot to slow cook on low for 6 to 7 hours. Or simmer in a pot on the stove for approximately 3 hours or until tender and completely cooked.
  • Shred the beef with a fork and knife in the pot before serving. Add garlic salt to taste.
  • Serve on brioche buns topped with coleslaw. Or serve topped with sautéed bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and melted provolone cheese.
  • ENJOY!
