Ingredients:
- 3 cups finely chopped celery (about 3 stalks)
- 4 cups finely chopped onions (about 3 medium onions)
- 3/4 cup dry red wine
- 1 can (14 oz) condensed beef broth
- 1/4 cup tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups chili sauce
- 3 pounds chuck steak
- 12 sandwich rolls
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Vegetables:
- Begin by finely chopping the celery until you have about 3 cups. Similarly, chop the onions finely to yield 4 cups.
-
Create the Marinade:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped celery and onions with the dry red wine, condensed beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and chili sauce. Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well-blended.
-
Simmer and Sieve:
- Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 20 to 25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly. After cooking, press the mixture through a sieve to remove any solid bits, ensuring a smooth, rich marinade. Allow the marinade to cool to room temperature.
-
Marinate the Beef:
- Place the chuck steak in a shallow pan or glass dish. Pour the cooled marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well-coated. Turn the steak several times to ensure an even marinade. Cover and let it marinate at room temperature for 2 hours to absorb all the flavors.
-
Grill the Steak:
- After marinating, drain the steak, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the steak on a grill, positioned 6 inches above gray, hot coals. Grill the steak for about 30 minutes, turning it every 5 minutes and brushing it with the reserved marinade to keep it moist and flavorful.
-
Prepare the Rolls:
- While the steak is grilling, toast the sandwich rolls on the grill until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
-
Slice and Serve:
- Once the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Cut the beef into paper-thin slices. Arrange the slices on the toasted rolls, spooning some of the hot, remaining marinade over the beef to enhance the flavor. Top each sandwich with the other half of the roll.
-
Enjoy:
- Serve your Texas Barbecued Beef Sandwiches hot and enjoy the savory, smoky goodness of this Texan classic. Perfect for sharing with family and friends or as a hearty meal to satisfy your hunger.
