Slow Cooker Tangy Italian Beef Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• In a 6-qt. stockpot, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat; brown roast on all sides. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Transfer to a 6-qt. slow cooker., Add onions to stockpot; cook and stir until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes Add garlic; cook 30 seconds longer. Add wine; cook 3-5 minutes, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Stir in stock, thyme, Italian seasoning and pepper flakes; transfer to slow cooker. Cook, covered, on low until beef is tender, 7-9 hours., About 1/2 hour before serving, preheat oven to 350°. Place peppers in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Drizzle with remaining oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder and the remaining salt and pepper; toss to coat. Roast until softened, 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway., Remove roast; cool slightly. Strain cooking juices into a small saucepan, reserving strained mixture and removing thyme stems. Skim fat from juices; heat through and keep warm. Coarsely shred beef with 2 forks; stir in reserved strained mixture. If desired, moisten beef with some of the cooking juices., To serve, preheat broiler. Arrange buns on baking sheets, cut side up. Broil 3-4 inches from heat until lightly toasted. Remove from oven; top each bun with 2/3 cup beef mixture and 1 slice cheese. Broil until cheese is melted, about 30 seconds., Top with peppers and, if desired, giardiniera. Serve with cooking juices for dipping.

Steps:

• In 3- to 4-quart slow cooker, mix all ingredients except buns.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 5 to 6 hours, stirring occasionally. Cut off top of each bun; pull some of bread out of each bun. Fill buns with beef mixture.

Steps:

• 1. Mix all sauce ingredients together. Place in a large slow cooker.
• 2. Add the roast. Cover and cook on high for 6-7 hours or until tender. I like to do this at least a day ahead of time. Let it cool. Shred the beef and return it to the sauce.
• 3. Serve with a slotted spoon adding a heaping helping on a good bun! Yum! Crowd pleasing! :)
• 4. NOTE: This time I almost doubled the meat. About 7 pounds of chuck roast and there was no need to double the sauce. Turned out perfect! And made enough to feed the hungry crowd! This is fairly inexpensive if you have alot of people to feed.
