what is a good recipe to use with shredded beef? and i dont want a taco or burrito.?

Question

i have a wide variety of sauces and spices in my kitchen, so ingredients are not a problem. i have just never really used shredded beef before

Answer 1

Good ole American sh*t on a shingle. White gravy mixed with chipped beef on toast.

Answer 2

Is this fresh shredded beef, already cooked? If so, perhaps add some italian seasonings and tomatoes and garlic and cook it into a good sauce for pasta. Or add some BBQ sauce and make a BBQ pizza (put cheddar on top instead of mozzarella) or a sandwich. Add some veggies and potatoes or pasta and make a great soup.

Are you using it out of a jar? The dried shredded beef? If so, here is a recipe -- slice the shredded beef into strips. Heat some oil in the pan and fry it until it "frizzles" Stir in a couple of tablespoons of flour, and stir until bubbly. Slowly stir in 2-3 cups of milk. It will become thick, like gravy. Add a lot of black pepper and any other seasoning you like. Then serve over a biscuit or toast. This is quite good, although it is called "S*** on a Shingle" by those in the military.

Answer 3

I think a frittata with asparagus and gruyere sounds great!


Asparagus and Gruyere frittata

May 9, 2007

Serves 8
Beating the eggs for at least three minutes is essential to making this frittata puffy and light. A 10-inch nonstick pan will hold 1 1/2 dozen eggs.
18 eggs
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut on the diagonal into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons water
1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
1. Set oven at 350 degrees. Have on hand a 10-inch skillet with a heatproof handle and deep sides.

2. In a large deep bowl with a rotary egg beater or a very large whisk, beat the eggs with salt and pepper for 3 to 5 minutes or until they are pale and frothy.

3. In the skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and cook the asparagus over medium-high heat for 1 minute.

4. Add the water and cook for 2 minutes more or until the water evaporates from the pan and the asparagus are tender.

5. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the pan. When it melts, pour in the eggs and lower the heat to medium. Cook the frittata for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the edges are set.

6. Sprinkle the frittata evenly with cheese. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook 10 to 12 minutes, or until it is puffed, golden, and the center is set. Cut into wedges. Keri Fisher

I don't have a recipe but you can try making a barbeque sauce and mixing the shredded beef with the bbq. Kind of like a pulled pork sandwich only it's beef.

Answer 10

French beef dip sandwich. You put it on a french roll w/ horseradish sauce, if you like and dip it in Au Jus sauce.

Beef taquitos. Beef and jalapeno jack cheese rolles in corn tortillas and fried w/ guacamole or salsa and sour cream.

BBQ Beef sandwich. Add BBQ sauce to meat, then pile on a bun or roll.

Answer 11

You could make rice or potatoes and serve it over them with gravy. You could fry some onion and mix with the beef. Then add about equal amounts sour cream and tomato paste to make a classical russian stroganoff.
