BBQ Pulled Beef

BBQ Pulled Beef
from Kyle, an EAGLES Tailgater

5-6 lb. of beef chuck roast
3 carrots, chopped in large chunks
1 large onion, quartered
2 bay leaves
4 large garlic cloves smashed
2 ribs celery, cut in large chunks
1 large bottle of favorite BBQ sauce

In a large stock pot add all ingredients except the BBQ sauce, and just
cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover, and turn down heat to a
simmer. Let beef simmer for about 2 1/2 hours, or until meat begins to
fall apart easily. Remove meat from pot reserving the cooking liquid.
Let cool briefly, then begin to pull the beef with 2 forks, resulting in a
shredded beef. Add the pulled beef to a large bowl. Add BBQ sauce, and
enough of the cooking liquid to give the beef a cole slaw look. I add
about 1 cup of the cooking liquid along with the BBQ sauce. I then place
the beef in a foil pan so it can be heated up on the grill, and serve on
toasted hamburger buns.
