Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Beef chuck roast
- 4 cups Beef broth
- 0.5 cups Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 medium Onion (sliced)
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 6 pieces Sub rolls
- 6 slices Provolone cheese slices
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast and place it in the bottom of a large crock pot.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, sliced onion, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Pour the mixture over the beef in the crock pot, ensuring it is fully covered by the liquid.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Once cooked, carefully remove the beef from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Set the shredded beef aside.
Strain the cooking liquid through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or measuring cup to make a clear au jus sauce. Discard the solids.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the sub rolls in half, and layer each with shredded beef and a provolone cheese slice. Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet.
Bake the sandwiches in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the rolls are slightly toasted.
Serve the sandwiches warm with a small bowl of the strained au jus sauce on the side for dipping.
