Japanese BBQ Chuck Roast

Ingredients

• 2.5 lb chuck roast
• 1 yellow onion (Medium, sliced)
• 1 head garlic (Cloves separated and peeled; the source notes that the head contained 22 cloves)
• 1.5 cup beef bone broth
• 0.5 cup Bachan’s Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce (@trybachans)
• additional Bachan’s Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce (2 to 3 tbsp, if needed, for a stronger Japanese BBQ flavor)
• cooked jasmine rice (For serving; amount not specified)
• green onions (Sliced, for serving; amount not specified)
• sesame seeds (For serving; amount not specified)
• lime wedges (Optional, for serving; the source recommends adding fresh lime juice)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

2. 2

   Place the chuck roast in a Dutch oven. Add the sliced onion, peeled garlic cloves, beef bone broth, and ½ cup Bachan’s Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce.

3. 3

   Mix the contents of the Dutch oven so the chuck roast is coated with the sauce and the other ingredients are distributed around it.

4. 4

   Cover the Dutch oven with its lid and bake for about 4 hours, or until the beef is tender and shreds easily with a fork.

5. 5

   Skim the excess fat from the surface of the braising liquid.

6. 6

   Shred the beef and mix it with the braising juices.

7. 7

   Taste the beef and juices. If a stronger Japanese barbecue flavor is desired, add 2 to 3 tablespoons more Bachan’s and mix it in.

8. 8

   Serve the shredded beef and braising juices over cooked jasmine rice. Finish with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and optional fresh lime juice or lime wedges.

Notes

The source does not specify the amount of jasmine rice or the quantities of green onions, sesame seeds, or lime. It notes that lime was added after filming and was highly recommended by the creator.
