Equipment

  • dutch oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • ¾ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 Tbsp. garlic chili sauce
  • 3 Tbsp. gochujang
  • 1 Tbsp. sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar firmly packed
  • 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 3-3 ½ lb. boneless beef chuck roast
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 cup yellow onion finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. grated fresh ginger
  • 4-6 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. cornstarch whisked with ¼ cup water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Whisk together your beef broth, soy sauce, garlic chili sauce, gochujang, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and light brown sugar in a large measuring cup or bowl until well combined. Set aside.
  • Pat your roast dry and then season with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Brown the meat on all sides. Remove the meat from the pan to a plate. Set aside. Add your onions and cook for 3-5 minutes before adding your ginger and garlic and continue to cook for 1 minute.
  • Pour in your sauce and cook for about 4-5 minutes before adding your roast back to the Dutch oven. Cover the Dutch oven and cook for roughly 2 ½ hours or until the meat is super tender and shreds easily.
  • Before shredding the meat, whisk two tablespoons of cornstarch with a ¼ cup of water and stir it into the sauce to thicken it.
  • Serve with steamed white rice or mashed potatoes, topped with sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

You will need a 3-3 ½ pound chuck roast for this recipe. Adjust gochujang and chili garlic sauce to taste for less spice.
