Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Beef chuck roast
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 1 packet Dry Italian salad dressing mix
- 4 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Jarred pepperoncini peppers with juice
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 Hoagie rolls
- 6 Provolone slices
Instructions
Place the beef chuck roast directly into the slow cooker.
Pour the beef broth over the roast, ensuring it is mostly submerged.
Sprinkle the dry Italian salad dressing mix over the meat evenly.
Add the minced garlic, jarred pepperoncini peppers (including the juice), dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set to cook on LOW for 8 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
Once cooked, carefully remove the roast and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker to soak up the juices.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the hoagie rolls, place them on a baking sheet, and layer each with shredded beef and a slice of provolone cheese.
Bake the sandwiches for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and the rolls are slightly toasted.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Optionally, spoon some extra cooking liquid from the slow cooker over the sandwiches for added flavor. Enjoy!
