Method

Follow these cooking methods/directions:

  1. Combine barbecue sauce, red wine, steak sauce, Worcestershire sauce, onion and garlic in minimum 5-qt (5 L) slow cooker. Add beef, turning to coat.

  2. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours (or 4 hours on HIGH) or until beef is fork-tender.

  3. Meanwhile, cut potatoes into chunky sticks or wedges and toss with some oil and coarse salt to your taste in a large bowl. Arrange in a single layer on foil-lined baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Roast in preheated 400°F oven, turning occasionally, for 20 to 30 minutes or until browned and tender.

  4. Transfer roast to a bowl and cut off twine; use two forks to pull beef into shreds. Skim fat from sauce; return shredded beef to sauce, tossing to coat. Serve beef with sauce over cooked potatoes and top with cheese curds and green onions.
