Crock Pot Italian Beef Sandwiches

 


Ingredients:

  • 3 lbs. chuck roast, trimmed of visible fat and cut into large pieces
  • 1 envelope Italian salad dressing mix
  • 8 oz. pepperoncini pepper slices + splash of juice (I use mild.)
  • 8 oz. Chicago-Style Giardiniera, drained (I use mild.)
  • 14.5 ounces beef broth/stock
  • provolone cheese slices
  • buns

Directions:

Place chuck roast into the bottom of a 6 quart crock pot and sprinkle with salad dressing mix. Add pepperoncini peppers plus a splash of juice, drained Giardiniera, and beef broth.  Lift chuck roast pieces to be sure that beef broth is evenly distributed underneath meat. 
Place a lid on top then cook on low for 9 hours, or until meat shreds easily with a fork. Shred then place meat back into juices inside crock pot and cook on low for 1 more hour.
Split buns in half, then scoop the shredded meat mixture on top and add provolone cheese slices. Top with additional pepperoncini peppers and Giardiniera, if desired, then serve.
