10slider buns(see note)
Instructions
Put the beef, onion, bourbon, garlic, Worcestershire, soy sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, salt, and pepper in a crock pot.
Add water until the meat is fully submerged. Cook on low for at least 6 hours.
When ready, remove the beef and place in a large bowl. Place the onions in a small bowl (to use as a topping later).
Reserve some of the juice the beef cooked in for dipping.
Shred the beef and remove fat pieces as desired. You will have approximately 3 1/2 cups of meat when done.
Toast buns if desired. Place approximately 1/3 cup of meat on each bun (see note, this will vary with the exact size of bun you use).
Pour approximately 1-2 Tablespoons of the blue cheese sauce over the meat on each slider.
Add a few slices of the onion from the crock pot on top of the blue cheese sauce.
Top each slider with your desired toppings. I love pickles, but pepperoncinis, additional blue cheese crumbles, and bacon are all great options. Serve warm.
Notes
Chuck roast is my favorite cut of beef to use for shredded beef, but other cuts could work here as well.Get the recipe for Bourbon Blue Cheese Sauce here!This recipe is enough for 10 sliders when using 1/3 cup of meat per slider, as in the pictures, resulting in a meat-heavy slider. You can get 14 sliders out of the recipe using 1/4 cup of meat.The exact size of your slider bun will determine how many sliders you can get and how full they are. We used slider buns approximately 3" in diameter.This recipe works great at a party as a slider bar. Guests can each build their own sliders.You need slow cooker liners in your life!
