This Italian Beef recipe features a chuck roast seasoned with a blend of spices and cooked in a crockpot with pepperoncini and giardiniera, served on sub rolls with freshly shredded mozzarella cheese.
1: Rub olive oil onto the chuck roast and season generously on all sides with half of the good seasoning packet, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and French Onion seasoning.
2: Heat a skillet on the stove, add butter, and sear each side of the chuck roast until it develops a crust.
3: Remove from the heat and place the chuck roast into a crockpot.
4: To the crockpot, add the rest of the seasoning packet, an entire jar of pepperoncini, 1 heaping tablespoon of giardiniera, a full beer, then add beef broth to just cover the roast.
5: Put the lid on, and let cook on low for 6-8 hours until meat is fork tender.
6: Once the meat shreds easily with a fork, remove to a bowl and shred with two forks.
7: For assembly, add the sub rolls into the pan, fill it with the beef, and top with freshly shredded mozzarella cheese.
8: Broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and toast the bread.
9: Serve with additional giardiniera, sauteed green peppers, and onions, and dunk the beef dip in the cooking liquid.
