Ingredients

• 🥩 3-4 lb chuck roast
• 🫒 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 🧅 1 large onion, sliced
• 🧄 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 🥣 3 cups beef broth
• 🥄 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 🥄 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 🌿 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 🌿 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 🧂 Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 🥖 6 French rolls or hoagie buns
• 🧀 6 slices provolone cheese
• 🌱 Optional: fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

1. Sear the Roast: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chuck roast with salt and pepper, then sear on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.
2. Set Up the Crockpot: Place sliced onion and minced garlic in the bottom of your crockpot. Lay the seared roast on top.
3. Add Liquids and Seasonings: Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Sprinkle thyme and rosemary over the roast.
4. Slow Cook: Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily shredded.
5. Shred the Beef: Remove the roast from the crockpot, shred with two forks, and return the meat to the juices in the crockpot to soak up flavor.
6. Assemble Sandwiches: Preheat oven to broil. Slice rolls open, pile with shredded beef, and top each with a slice of provolone cheese.
7. Broil: Place sandwiches under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Serve: Plate sandwiches with a small bowl of the au jus (cooking liquid) for dipping. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
