Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.4 kg (3 lb) beef chuck roast

  • 960 ml (4 cups) beef broth

  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced (about 150 g / 5 oz)

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) Worcestershire sauce

  • 5 ml (1 teaspoon) soy sauce

  • 5 ml (1 teaspoon) dried thyme

  • 5 ml (1 teaspoon) dried rosemary

  • 2.5 ml (½ teaspoon) black pepper

  • 2.5 ml (½ teaspoon) salt

  • 68 crusty sandwich rolls

  • 170 g (6 oz) sliced provolone or mozzarella cheese (optional)


Instructions

  • Season the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper.

  • Place sliced onions in the bottom of the crockpot and set the beef on top.

  • Add garlic, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, and beef broth.

  • Cover and cook on low for 8–9 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until tender.

  • Remove beef, shred with forks, and return it to the broth.

  • Serve with cooking broth on the side for dipping.

Notes

For best results, use a well-marbled chuck roast and toast the rolls lightly before serving to prevent sogginess.
