Slow Cooker Shredded Beef BBQ

Friday, June 15, 2018 at 10:53 am by

The official start of summer is right around the corner, but we are already in full BBQ mode. BBQ is as synonymous with summer as burgers and hotdogs, and you can never have too many recipes.

Slow Cooker Shredded Beef BBQ

Hamilton Beach® slow cooker is great for cooking homemade barbecue. Not only are you leaving the oven off (and ultimately keeping the house cool), you can make bbq in bulk to serve at summer picnics or make as your meal prep for the week. Pack it with grilled corn and a beautiful summer salad for lunches during the week (no sad desk lunch here).

Slow Cooker Shredded Beef BBQ

Slow cooker shredded beef BBQ is a sweet, tomato-based BBQ that is perfect served with a generous helping of cornbread and cool, crunchy homemade coleslaw on a hot summer day.

In the slow cooker crock, mix tomato puree, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, garlic, onion, paprika, mustard, crushed red pepper, salt, and black pepper. This homemade barbecue sauce is going to add tons of flavor to the meat as it cooks low and slow.

Then add boneless beef chuck roast to the crock. You’ll want to use tongs to turn the meat and make sure it’s completely coated with the sweet & tangy barbecue sauce before cooking.

Cover and cook on HIGH for 5 to 6 hours or LOW for 10 to 12 hours.

Remove the beef and transfer to a cutting board to shred. Simply use two forks to shred the meat and either transfer back to the crock to mix in with the remaining BBQ sauce or transfer to a serving bowl and add sauce.

This rich, melt-in-your mouth barbecue is a summer slow cooker recipe you’ll make over and over again. Grab a plate, a big glass of iced tea and welcome your summer menu.

Reuben Sandwiches Two Ways

Saturday, March 14, 2015 at 9:00 am by

Reuben Sandwiches Two Ways - On a panini grill or in a Breakfast Sandwich Maker. These are so good! (Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach)

Reuben sandwiches are a New York deli classic and a great use for leftover St. Patrick’s Day corned beef. It’s no wonder this sandwich is counted among many people’s favorites. A great reuben with a side of chips and a soda is about as perfect a lunch combo as one can create.

If you’ve never had a reuben sandwich before, we a) are very sad for you and b) think you should stop reading here and run to the nearest deli counter. Are you back? Okay, good, we’re all on the same page about how delicious the reuben is. The origin of the sandwich is unclear. One story credits a grocer in Omaha and one, a deli owner in New York city (I’ll let you guess which side of the fence we stand on). Wherever its true origins, we’re glad it exists because it’s a favorite in our test kitchen.

The grilled sandwich contains a stack of corned beef, sauerkraut, swiss cheese and Russian or Thousand Island dressing layered between slices of buttered rye bread. It’s typically grilled until everything is warm and melted, but we love the way the cheese melts and the bread gets toasty in our panini press. The panini press’s gorgeous grill marks add to the spectacle of gooey, dripping goodness.

You’ll love the panini twist on this New York classic – just don’t try to eat this delicious sandwich without some napkins nearby.

The Breakfast Sandwich Maker has gotten so popular its spawned cookbooks full of recipes for breakfast sandwiches – and lunch and dinner foods alike! We’re always inspired by the things we see people making in our Breakfast Sandwich Makers, so we are always trying to come up with new ideas you can try at home in your machine.

Since we obviously love reuben sandwiches so much, we knew we had to make one in the Breakfast Sandwich Maker. Happily, it worked like a charm! We love this recipe for a toasty reuben that’s perfect for party snacks, game days, small hands, mid-afternoon snacks or an easy lunch. And now we’re inspired to make reuben everything: nachos, tacos, dips, pizzas…we could go on.

Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage

Thursday, March 12, 2015 at 2:00 pm by

 Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage from Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach

Corned beef and cabbage is about as classic a St. Patrick’s Day dish as you can make. Corned beef is slow cooked and served alongside cabbage with optional ingredients like potatoes, carrots and onions. Though corned beef and cabbage is Irish at heart, it’s not something the Irish ate often back in the day. Instead, during the 18th century, the beef-producing country exported the expensive meat to neighboring countries and dined on pork, veggies and dairy instead. Who knew?

Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage from Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach

Today, most Irish don’t consider corned beef a native dish. And believe me, we asked our resident Irishman. Rather, the salt-cured meat as we know it now is an Irish-American and New York delicatessen fusion. It’s become a St. Paddy’s favorite as part of Irish-American culture, since corned beef was a cheaper substitute for bacon in the traditional Irish dish bacon and cabbage. (Wikipedia)

Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage from Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach

Regardless of its origins or authenticity, we’re big fans of corned beef – both in sandwiches and this corned beef and cabbage dish – so we’re happy to make it at home once a year each March. To keep things as quick and simple as possible, we make our recipe in the slow cooker.

Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage from Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach

The corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, carrots and onions go in the crock with some pickling spices and water until everything is cooked through but still vibrant. It smells amazing as it cooks, so you’ll be hungry all day. When the table is set, the meat and veggies get drained and served for a delicious St. Patrick’s Day meal.

Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage from Everyday Good Thinking by @hamiltonbeach

There’s only one pot to clean up and the leftovers (if there are any) make a delicious reuben sandwich. Serve the corned beef and cabbage with a good Irish beer. We’re not into the green beer, but prefer a nice stout to go with the theme: a deliciously hearty St. Patrick’s Day.

Slow Cooker Classic Meatloaf

Thursday, January 15, 2015 at 3:00 pm by

Slow Cooker Classic Meatloaf from Everyday Good Thinking, the official blog of @hamiltonbeach

We love the flavor combinations of classic meatloaf, but it can be a hassle to put together, especially on a weeknight. And despite how easy it seems, meatloaf tends to dry out when you bake it in the oven.  Believe it or not, the slow cooker is an ideal way to make meatloaf.

Slow Cooker Classic Meatloaf from Everyday Good Thinking, the official blog of @hamiltonbeach

This cooking method locks in moisture so dry meatloaf will be a thing of the past. Prepare everything in advance, then place the entire crock in the fridge until morning. When you leave for the day, place the crock in the slow cooker, set the timer and come home later to a perfectly cooked meal.
