Ingredients:

  • 1 pound beef knuckle (or chuck roast), cut into 1-inch thick slabs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 4 large soft sandwich rolls or brioche buns
  • 1 cup fresh arugula or spinach
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • ½ cup sliced pickles or dill cucumber
  • ½ cup creamy coleslaw (optional)
  • BBQ sauce or mayonnaise for spreading (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes until well combined.
  2. Place the beef knuckle slabs in the marinade, ensuring they are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 400°F or 200°C).
  4. Remove beef from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the beef on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  5. Remove grilled beef from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  6. Slice the beef into thin strips. Spread BBQ sauce or mayonnaise on the insides of the buns. Layer arugula, sliced tomatoes, pickles, and sliced beef. Add coleslaw if desired.
  7. Serve immediately while warm, with a side of your favorite chips or salad.
