Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup sliced pepperoncini
1/4 cup sliced pickled jalapeños
1/4 cup sliced roasted red peppers
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon pepperoncini liquid
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds sirloin steak, trimmed of excess fat and frozen for 10 to 15 minutes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups low-sodium beef broth
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 hero rolls, split
12 slices provolone

Steps:

  • For the giardiniera: Combine the carrots, pepperoncini, jalapeños, roasted red peppers, olive oil, pepperoncini liquid, garlic powder and pepper in a bowl. Toss well, then set aside.
  • For the beef: Remove the sirloin from the freezer and, using a mandoline or a sharp knife, cut into very thin strips against the grain. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large saute pan. Add the beef and sauté until starting to brown, but still pink, about 2 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning and garlic, then cook for 30 seconds. Add the broth and vinegar, then bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat.

Easy crock pot Italian Beef sandwiches from scratch. Juicy, tender beef cooked with simple ingredients, it's popular and great for a crowd!

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Dinner

Time 9h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 to 4 pound chuck roast or round roast (trimmed of large chunks of excess fat)
Kosher salt
14.5 ounce can beef broth (divided)
8 ounces pepperoncini pepper slices (plus 1/4 cup of juice and additional peppers for serving)
8 ounces giardiniera (mild or spicy)
Provolone cheese slices (for serving)
Hoagie buns (for serving)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon thyme dried (ground)

Steps:

  • Let the meat rest at room temperature for 15 minutes (this is a good time to measure your other spices and seasonings). Season the beef all over with kosher salt.
  • Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high. Once it is hot, sear the meat on all sides until golden brown, moving it as little as possible so that it develops a nice crust (this will take about 10 minutes). Transfer to the slow cooker.
  • Turn the heat to medium. Carefully splash in some of the broth and with a wooden spoon, scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan (this is FLAVOR). Pour the liquid and any bits into the slow cooker on top of the beef.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the seasoning ingredients: Italian seasoning, granulated sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Sprinkle on top of the beef.
  • Add the pepperoncini peppers and juice. Add the giardiniera (do not add any giardiniera juice).
  • Pour in the remaining broth.
  • Cover the crockpot and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours, or until meat shreds easily with a fork. Shred the beef, then stir it together with the juices. Cover and cook on low for 30 additional minutes.
  • To serve, split the hoagie buns and toast on a baking sheet in the oven at 350 degrees for 5 to 7 minutes (if desired). Fill with the shredded Italian beef (get plenty of that yummy, messy juice!) and top with provolone, pepperoncini, and Giardiniera as desired. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast is a good option because it's relatively inexpensive and has a lot of flavor. You can also use brisket or rump roast.
  • Brown the beef in a hot pan. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the beef from sticking to the pan.
  • Simmer the beef for at least two hours. This will help to tenderize the beef and make it fall apart easily.
  • Use a good quality Italian bread. This will help to hold up to the hearty beef and sauce.
  • Make your own horseradish sauce. It's easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought sauce.

Conclusion:

Italian beef sandwiches are a delicious and hearty meal that are perfect for a party or a weeknight dinner. They're easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a new sandwich recipe, give Italian beef sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed.
