Method
- 1
Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).
- 2
Prepare the meat by cubing the chuck roast into large, uniform pieces.
- 3
Apply yellow mustard all over the beef cubes to act as a binder for the seasoning.
- 4
Generously season all sides of the beef with your favorite BBQ rub.
- 5
Place the seasoned beef cubes on a wire rack and put them into the preheated smoker. Smoke for 3 hours. Spritz the meat hourly with a liquid like apple cider vinegar or beef broth to keep it moist.
- 6
After 3 hours, remove the beef from the smoker. Place it in a foil pan, add 3 tablespoons of butter, 1/2 cup of beef broth, and 1 cup of BBQ sauce. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
- 7
Return the covered pan to the smoker and continue to cook for another 2 hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
- 8
While the beef finishes cooking, dice a large onion. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium heat and cook the onions until they are caramelized.
- 9
Once the beef is done, remove it from the smoker and shred it using gloved hands or forks.
- 10
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). To assemble the sliders, slice the sheet of slider buns in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in a baking dish lined with parchment paper.
- 11
Layer 6 slices of cheddar cheese on the bottom buns.
- 12
Evenly spread the shredded BBQ beef over the cheddar cheese.
- 13
Top the beef with the caramelized onions and drizzle with additional BBQ sauce if desired.
- 14
Layer 6 slices of provolone cheese over the onions.
- 15
Place the top half of the slider buns on top.
- 16
Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter and sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
- 17
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tops are golden brown.
- 18
Remove from the oven, slice into individual sliders, and serve immediately.
