SLOW COOKER CHEESY ITALIAN SHREDDED BEEF SANDWICHES RECIPE
These Slow Cooker Cheesy Italian Shredded Beef Sandwiches were SO good! Best of all - this meal requires very little effort (your slow cooker does most of the work) and yields an awesome result!
INGREDIENTS
· boneless beef chuck roast, about 3 lbs total - I used 2 small 1.5 lb roasts
· 1 medium yellow/white onion, sliced
· 1 0.6oz Italian salad dressing seasoning packet
· 1 1/2 cans (14.5 oz) beef broth (I prefer low-sodium)
· 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
· 12 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese
· 12 large ranch rolls (HB bun size but not HB buns!) or ciabatta rolls
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn slow cooker on LOW.
2. Pour in 1 can beef broth. Place roast in slow cooker. Sprinkle 1/2 Italian salad dressing seasoning packet over roast. Tumble sliced onions over top of roast. Mix remaining Italian salad dressing seasonings with remaining 1/2 can beef broth and pour over roast & onions.
3. Cook on LOW 6-8 hours or on HIGH 4-5 hours.
TO SERVE
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Remove meat & onions from slow cooker to a medium-size bowl. If you don't like the onions, you can throw them away. I like to keep them in a separate bowl & top the sandwiches with them. (Well, my sandwich since the family doesn't like cooked onions - lol!) Set aside.
3. Pour liquid in crock pot through a sieve into at least a 4 cup glass measuring cup (preferrably one that pours the broth from the bottom & leaves the oils on top behind in the measuring cup).
4. Discard contents of sieve. Pour 1 1/2 cups broth back into crock pot. Discard excess liquid & oils.
5. Shred meat with forks & return to slow cooker with broth. Stir in parmesan cheese until all cheese & liquid is combined with the meat.
6. Place bottom halves of rolls on a foil-covered baking sheet. Distribute meat/cheese mixture evenly between all 12 rolls. Top each with 1 slice provolone cheese. Place under broiler until cheese is melted & lightly browned (just 1-2 minutes). Top with top halves of rolls. Serve immediately.
