Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Beef chuck roast
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 12 fluid ounces Beer (lager or amber works best)
- 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large Green bell pepper, sliced
- 6 Sub rolls or hoagie buns
- 6 Provolone cheese slices
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast, then pat it dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this seasoning mixture evenly over the surface of the roast.
Place the seasoned beef in the slow cooker.
Add the beef broth and beer to the slow cooker, pouring it around the meat to retain the seasoning on top.
Layer the sliced onion and green bell pepper over the roast in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Once the beef is done, use two forks to shred it directly in the slow cooker, mixing the meat with the flavorful juices and cooked vegetables.
Toast the sub rolls or hoagie buns lightly, if desired.
Spoon the shredded beef mixture onto the rolls, allowing some of the juice to soak into the bread for extra flavor.
Top each sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese and serve immediately. If desired, you can place the sandwiches under a broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Serve warm alongside chips or a salad for a complete meal.
