Slow Cooking Thursday

Here's some yummy sandwiches, made easy in the slow cooker!

Italian Beef Sandwiches

3 pounds beef roast

3 cups beef broth

1 envelope Italian salad dressing mix

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried parsley

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon oregano

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 large onion, julienned

1 large green pepper, julienned

4 teaspoons olive oil

12 hamberger buns

12 slices provolone cheese

Cut roast in half, place in a 4 quart slow cooker.  Combine the broth, dressing mix and seasonings; pour over meat.  Cover and cook on low for 10 hours or until meat is falling apart.

Remove roast and cool slightly.  Skim fat from cooking juices.  Reserve 1 cup cooking juices.  Shred beef and return to slow cooker.  Stir in reserved juices and heat through.

Meanwhile in large skillet, saute onion and green pepper in oil until tender.

Using slotted spoon, place beef on buns, then layer with vegetables and cheese.  Enjoy!
