Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Chuck roast
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 1 cup Dill pickle juice
- 4 Dill pickle spears
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons Dried dill weed
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 6 Sub rolls or sandwich buns
- 6 Provolone or Swiss cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the chuck roast and place it in the crock pot.
Pour the beef broth and dill pickle juice over the roast.
Add the minced garlic, sliced onion, and dill pickle spears to the pot, arranging them around the meat.
Sprinkle the dried dill weed, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) evenly over the roast and liquid.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 8 hours or until the beef is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the roast from the crock pot and shred it using two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat.
Return the shredded beef to the crock pot and stir it into the juices to keep it moist and flavorful.
Serve the dilly beef warm on sub rolls or sandwich buns. Add a slice of provolone or Swiss cheese, if desired, and let it melt slightly.
Optionally, garnish with additional sliced dill pickles for an extra tangy kick.
