Ingredients

• 1 ½ pounds beef chuck roast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 pound spaghetti
• 2 cups mashed potatoes (prepared separately)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

How to Make Pulled Beef Spaghetti with Creamy Mashed Potatoes

1. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, then sear it on all sides until browned. Remove the roast and set aside.
2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Return the beef to the skillet and add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, and oregano. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 3-4 hours or until the beef is fork-tender.
4. Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the skillet and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the skillet, stirring it into the juices. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
5. While the beef is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
6. To serve, plate the spaghetti, top it with a generous portion of pulled beef, and add a scoop of creamy mashed potatoes on top. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure the beef is well-browned for maximum flavor.
• Allow the beef to rest for a few minutes before shredding to retain its juices.
• Use homemade or high-quality mashed potatoes for the best texture and flavor.
• If you prefer a thicker sauce, let the pulled beef simmer uncovered for the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Easy Variations

• Swap out beef for pulled pork or chicken for a different flavor profile.
• Add vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms to the pulled beef for added nutrition.
• Use whole wheat or gluten-free spaghetti to cater to dietary preferences.

What to Serve With It

• A fresh garden salad to balance the richness of the dish.
• Garlic bread for soaking up the delicious sauce.
• Roasted vegetables for a colorful, healthy side.
