SHREDDED BBQ BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°.
• In a small bowl mix together all the BBQ Seasoning ingredients. Expert Tip - make sure all the brown sugar clumps are separated before moving on.
• Reserve 2 tbsp of the BBQ Seasoning and set aside.
• Pat the beef dry with paper towels. Then cut it into 3 inch chunks. Discard any large pieces of white fat.
• Season all sides of the beef with the BBQ Seasoning.
• In a large pot (that has a lid, like a Dutch oven) whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire and tomato paste. Add the onions and garlic to the pot.
• Place the seasoned beef pieces on top of the onions in the pot.Expert Tip- mop up any excess seasoning with the beef pieces before placing in the pot.
• Pop the lid on and place in the preheated oven for 3 hours, until the beef shreds easily.Expert Tip- if at the end of 3 hours your beef is not tender, add 20 minute increments until it is ready.
• Remove the beef pieces from the pot, place on a rimmed baking sheet and shred with 2 forks.Remove any large pieces of fat you may come across.
• Optionally you can add the garlic and cooked onions from the braising liquid to your shredded beef. The actual braising liquid is discarded in this recipe. It can tend to be quite greasy and would also make your bbq beef greasy.
• Sprinkle 1/2 of the reserved BBQ Seasoning over the shredded beef and toss to coat. Give it a taste and add more seasoning to your liking.
• Mix the beef with 1/2 cup of your favorite BBQ Sauce.
• Serve the Shredded BBQ Beef on buns or rolls with additional BBQ sauce, coleslaw, pickles and/or cheese.... whatever toppings you like!

MY MOM'S BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Coat stewing beef in flour, I use a colander so that the excess easily goes through.
• Heat a large pot, add oil and then beef and onion.
• Cook, stirring occasionally until the outside is browned (you are not cooking it; just giving it a crust).
• Add water, Worcestershire sauce, or wine and spices (except salt and pepper).
• Add one 14 oz can of tomato soup, depending on your taste you may or may not want to add some or all of the second can. Start with one.
• Simmer for approximately 2 hours (it really depends on the size of the pieces of stewing beef and if you want them firm or more towards the shredded stage.
• After the beef is close to your desired texture add vegetable, another partial or full can of soup, and pepper. Salt is optional, as the tomato soup contains salt. Cook for 20 min or until vegetables are cooked to your liking.
• Stir occasionally through the cooking process so that it does not stick.

• * dumpling are a perfect companion to this recipe.

MY MOM'S COFFEE-BRAISED BRISKET

Steps:

• Mix the ground coffee, salt, cardamom and black cardamom in a small bowl and rub into the brisket. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Put the brisket in a roasting pan and roast until the exterior has browned, about 20 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees.
• Warm 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the onions, carrots and the garlic, cut-side down. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened and browned, about 15 minutes, adding more oil if necessary. Add the tomato paste and cook until it reduces slightly, about 2 more minutes.
• Transfer the vegetables to the roasting pan with the brisket. Add the dried apricots, brewed coffee and eggs in their shells. Add enough water to bring the liquid halfway up the side of the brisket.
• Cover the pan tightly with two layers of foil, return to the oven and braise for 1 hour. Remove the eggs, gently tap them all over to make a network of small cracks and return them to the braise. Recover the pan with foil and continue cooking until the brisket shreds easily with a fork, about 3 more hours. Let the brisket cool in its braising liquid, then refrigerate overnight.
• To serve, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Peel the cold eggs and slice the cold brisket, then return them both to the braising liquid and bake until warmed through, about 30 minutes. Serve the brisket slices with the peeled eggs, grated fresh horseradish and parsley leaves and spoon the broth over top.
