Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 pounds round roast, trimmed (or sirloin tip)
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup applejack
  • 2 cups beef stock, canned
  • 3 cups burgundy
  • Softly Simmered Onions (see recipe)

Directions
  1. Heat butter & oil in dutch oven over medium high heat. Liberally rub roast all over with salt & pepper. Brown beef on all sides.
  2. Pour applejack into pan and flame it with a long fireplace-type lighter. IT WILL FLAME HIGH SO KEEP AS FAR BACK AS POSSIBLE AND BE SURE YOUR HAIR IS OUT OF THE WAY!!
  3. Once the flame dies down, pour in the stock and the wine. Cover pan and simmer slowly over low heat for about 4 hours.
  4. Remove from heat, cool to room temperature and with two forks, shred beef into small pieces, following the grain of the meat. It should fall apart.
  5. Return beef to the liquid in the pan and heat.
  6. Serve on good crusty rolls with the simmered onions that go with this. They are PERFECT with the beef!
  7. This freezes beautifully...and the onions, too. Good to make ahead for parties.
