Ingredients

For the beef:

  • 2 pound beef brisket
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 2-3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1-2 canned chilies in adobo minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 packages King's Hawaiian Rolls
  • 8 slices Havarti cheese cut into quarters

For the caramelized onions:

  • 3 medium yellow onions thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Place the brisket and chopped onion in the bowl of a lightly greased slow cooker.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the ketchup, beef broth, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, chilies in adobo, and spices. Pour over the brisket.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until meat shreds easily with a fork. Remove the brisket from the slow cooker and shred. Cover and keep warm.
  • Pour the sauce from the slow cooker through a fine mesh sieve into a medium saucepan. Simmer for 15-20 minutes over medium heat until sauce thickens and reduces by about half. Toss the shredded meat with the sauce.
  • While brisket is cooking, caramelize your onions. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are dark golden brown. If you make the onions earlier in the day, reheat them before serving.
  • Slice King's Hawaiian rolls horizontally. Pile beef on the bottom half of the buns. Top with a quarter slice of cheese and some caramelized onions. Add the top half of the bun and enjoy!
