Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 3–4 lbs chuck roast
Sauce
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Prepare the roast: Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels to ensure better browning and flavor absorption during slow cooking.
- Mix the glaze: In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is well blended to create the sticky BBQ sauce.
- Slow cook the roast: Place the chuck roast in a slow cooker and pour the prepared soy-garlic glaze over it, ensuring the meat is well coated. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours, until the meat is tender and easily shreddable.
- Glaze the roast: About 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, baste the roast with the cooking juices to thicken and enhance the stickiness of the glaze. Optionally, remove the roast and reduce the sauce in a pan over medium heat until slightly thickened, then brush it on the meat for an extra sticky coating.
- Serve sliced: Remove the roast from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice the roast against the grain and serve it drizzled with the sticky Asian BBQ glaze for a rich and flavorful meal.
Notes
- For deeper flavor, sear the chuck roast in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker.
- Adjust brown sugar quantity based on desired sweetness level.
- Serve with steamed rice or roasted vegetables to complement the meal.
- Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
