Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef chuck roast
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) beef broth
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- 6 hoagie rolls
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and pepper.
- Place the roast in the slow cooker, fat side up.
- In a bowl, whisk the beef broth and onion soup mix until combined. Pour the mixture over the roast.
- Cover and cook on low for 480 minutes or on high for 240 minutes. The beef is done when it shreds easily with two forks.
- Remove the roast and transfer it to a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the meat into bite-size pieces.
- Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir so it soaks up the juices for a few minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- To assemble, split each hoagie roll and pile on sliced beef. Top each with a slice of provolone. Serve warm with the au jus in small bowls for dipping.
Notes
For a richer au jus, use low-sodium beef broth. Toasting rolls under a broiler enhances crunch.
