Ingredients
- For the pulled beef
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1kg/2lb 4oz beef shoulder or chuck, cut into large chunks (alternatively use braising or stewing steak)
- 500ml/18fl oz beef stock
- 200ml/7fl oz barbecue sauce
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 tbsp soft light brown sugar
- salt and black pepper
- For the guacamole
- 2 avocados, peeled and stones removed
- ½ green chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped
- ½ lime, juice only
- ½ small red onion, finely chopped
- pinch mild chilli powder
- small handful chopped coriander
- For the tomato salsa
- 2 large vine tomatoes, finely chopped
- ½ small red onion, finely chopped
- ½ green chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped
- squeeze lime juice
- pinch mild chilli powder
- 1 heaped tbsp finely chopped chives
- To serve
- 600g/1lb 5oz frozen French fries
- pinch mixed dried herbs
- 150g/5½oz soured cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3, or get a slow cooker ready.
- To make the pulled beef, heat the oil in a large, flameproof casserole or deep sauté pan over a high heat. Sear the beef in batches, making sure it’s browned evenly on all sides. Remove the pieces to a paper-lined plate whilst you cook the rest.
- Pour the stock into the pan, along with the remaining pulled beef ingredients, seasoning generously with salt and pepper. Mix together, then return the browned meat to the pan.
- Cover the pan with a lid and transfer to the oven. Cook for 4–5 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender, and the sauce has reduced and thickened. Alternatively, transfer to a slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 8–10 hours. Check towards the end of the cooking time as you may need to add a splash of water.
- Meanwhile, make the guacamole and salsa. For the guacamole, mash the avocadoes with a fork and stir in the remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. For the salsa, mix all the ingredients together and season with salt and pepper.
- When the beef is nearly cooked, cook the fries following the packet instructions.
- To serve, pull the cooked beef apart in the sauce using two forks. Toss the cooked fries with a pinch of mixed herbs. Load the pulled beef on top of the fries and top with the guacamole, salsa and soured cream.
