Mile High Shredded Beef

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 35 min. Cook: 3 hours YIELD: 12-15 servings.
This tender beef has become a tasty tradition when I cook for our harvest crews and for neighboring ranchers who come to help us sort our cattle. Those hungry folks have been a good testing ground for recipes. They let me know if a new one I try is a "keeper". -Betty Sitzman, Wray, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless beef chuck roast (3 pounds)
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 celery rib, chopped
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar

Directions

  • 1. Place the roast in a Dutch oven; add broth, onion and celery. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until the meat is tender.
