CROCK-POT SHREDDED BEEF SANDWICHES



Crock-Pot Shredded Beef Sandwiches image

I've seen quite a few other recipes on here like this one, but they all have Italian dressing in them. Which I was a little weirded out by so I didn't want to use it. I came across this recipe in a Taste Of Home book and figured I'd give it a try. Please note that it IS a spicy meal. If you have a hard time dealing with normal black pepper or mild salsa you probably will not like this. I like mild salsa but too much of it burns my mouth and black pepper bothers me too sometimes. I COULD deal with this (by NOT eating any of the peppers), and I liked it, but it is very spicy to someone like me.

Time 8h10m

Yield 10-12 small subs, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (11 1/2 ounce) jar pepperoncini peppers (I could only find 16oz jar and used it all)
1 (3 1/2-4 lb) boneless beef chuck roast
1/4 cup water
1 3/4 teaspoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1 large onion (sliced and quartered)
10 -12 hard rolls (if you use soft rolls they will get soggy, but you could try toasting them. I use normal sized sub b) or 4 -6 large sub buns (if you use soft rolls they will get soggy, but you could try toasting them. I use normal sized sub b)

Steps:

  • Drain the peppers, reserve the liquid. Cut off the stems. Set aside.
  • Cut roast into large chunks. I cut mine into thirds and then split those in half.
  • Place 1/3 of the meat into a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add water.
  • In a small bowl, combine the seasonings and sprinkle half over the meat.
  • Layer another 1/3 of the meat on top. Add the onion, Peppers, and Pepper juice.
  • Layer the last 1/3 of meat and cover with remaining seasonings.
  • NOTE: I found that my pot was large enough to fit all the slices of meat all on the bottom. I just put 1/2 the spices, all the peppers, onion and pepper juice on top. Then topped it off with the rest of the spices.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-9hrs or until meat is tender.
  • Once done shred with forks and using a slotted spoon put on rolls.
  • NOTE: If you are using a soft bread, you may want to drain the meat a little more. And for those that can't handle more spice, I wouldn't recommend eating the peppers.

Tips:

  • Use a chuck roast or a rump roast for the best results. These cuts of beef are tough but become tender when cooked slowly in a crock pot.
  • Brown the beef in a skillet before adding it to the crock pot. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the beef from becoming dry.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to the crock pot along with the beef. This will add flavor and nutrients to the dish.
  • Use a low-sodium beef broth to help keep the dish healthy. You can also add water or a combination of broth and water.
  • Cook the beef on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours. The longer the beef cooks, the more tender it will become.
  • Shred the beef with two forks when it is cooked. This will make it easy to serve on sandwiches or tacos.
  • Serve the shredded beef on hoagie rolls or tortillas with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Crock pot shredded beef sandwiches are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. They are perfect for a busy weeknight dinner or a weekend lunch. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can have a tasty and satisfying meal that everyone will love.
