🥘Ingredients

For the Beef

3 lbs beef chuck roast
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 large onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups beef broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
2 bay leaves

For Serving

6 hoagie rolls, split
6 slices provolone cheese
Optional: horseradish sauce

👨‍🍳Directions

1Pat the beef chuck roast dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper.
2Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then sear the roast for 3 to 4 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms.
3Transfer the seared roast to the slow cooker.
4Add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion softens and becomes fragrant.
5Pour the beef broth into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon.
6Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and dried rosemary, then pour the mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.
7Add the bay leaves to the slow cooker, cover with the lid, and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours, until the beef is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
8Remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
9Discard the bay leaves and skim any excess fat from the cooking liquid, then return the shredded beef to the liquid to keep it moist.
10Preheat the broiler to high.
11Place the split hoagie rolls on a baking sheet, top each with shredded beef and a slice of provolone cheese, then broil for 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
12Serve the sandwiches with small bowls of the warm jus for dipping.
