Categories     weeknight meals     dinner     main dish     meat

Time 7h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 2 1/2-pound piece beef chuck roast
1 tsp. minced fresh rosemary
3/4 tsp. kosher salt
Black pepper, to taste
1 12-ounce jar pepperoncini
1 c. beef broth
6 tbsp. salted butter, softened
1 large onion, sliced
6 soft hoagie rolls, split
12 slices provolone cheese
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Toss the beef roast in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker with the rosemary, ½ teaspoon salt and a generous grinding of pepper. Add the pepperoncini with their brine, along with the beef broth. Cover and cook on low until the meat is very tender and easy to pull apart, 7 to 8 hours.
  • When the slow cooker has about 15 minutes left, heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the roast to a bowl and shred using 2 forks, then return it to the slow cooker. Keep warm.

Put 2 slices of cheese on each sandwich and return to the broiler just to melt the cheese, about 1 more minute. Serve with potato chips and the extra cooking liquid on the side for dipping.

CROCK-POT PULLED BEEF POT ROAST SANDWICHES



Crock-Pot Pulled Beef Pot Roast Sandwiches image

Crock-Pot Pulled Beef Pot Roast Sandwiches are one of my all-time favorite dump-and-go summer meals. After searing the beef and onions on the stove-top, the crock-pot does the rest of the work, cooking the meat to pulled perfection.

Provided by Kristin Marr

Categories     Main Course

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 TB extra virgin olive oil
2 medium yellow onions (halved (remove the outside skin))
1 pinch salt (and pepper)
2 1/2 lb beef chuck roast
1 cup chicken broth (Vegetable or beef broth will also work.)
1 TB chopped fresh rosemary (about 3 sprigs)
burger buns (I like Silver Springs brand)
1 TB softened butter (per sandwich)
2 pickles (per sandwich)
1 slice cheese (per sandwich, I like sharp cheddar)
sauerkraut
mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chuck roast with a generous helping of salt and pepper on each side. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, add the olive oil until hot, but not smoking. Add the halved onions and saute just until brown and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Note: I've learned some ceramic crock-pots may be used on the stove-top in place of a skillet. You will want to check with your crock-pot manufacturer before trying this. Push the onions off to the side of the skillet.
  • Add the chuck roast to the center of the hot skillet and brown on each side for 3-4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
  • Add the onions and chuck roast to the crock-pot. Pour the broth over the top and the fresh rosemary.
  • Cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 8 hours.

SHREDDED BEEF CHUCK ROAST



Shredded Beef Chuck Roast image

Because a beef chuck roast has lots of connective tissue, long, slow cooking turns the meat juicy and almost satiny in texture. In fact, it's reason alone to own a slow cooker.

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into 3 equal pieces
1 head garlic, cloves smashed and peeled

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In a large Dutch oven, combine beef, garlic, oregano, rosemary, and broth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until beef is tender and can be pulled apart with a fork, 5 to 6 hours.
