Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef roast
- 10.5 ounces beef consomme
- 8 ounces sliced pepperoncini peppers with juice
- 1 envelope Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix
- 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
- kosher salt to taste
- 6 French Rolls
- 6 lices pepper jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275. Place beef roast in a large roasting pan, then pour the can of beef consomme over the top.
- Pour 1/2 of the pepperoncini peppers, including juice, over the top. Then sprinkle the dry italian dressing mix, minced garlic, and kosher salt over that.
- Cook for about 6 hours, roast should easily shred, if not cook a little longer.
- When the roast is done, shred the beef into the juice and pepperoncinis.
- Open the french rolls and place open face up on a cookie sheet. Layer one side of each roll with sliced pepper jack cheese.
- Place pan under the broiler on high until cheese starts to melt. Remove pan from oven and line each sandwich with shredded beef, using a large fork or slotted spoon. Ladle additonal beef broth into a small cup to use as au jus for dipping.
Notes
- Bring the meat to room temperature. Take it out of the fridge and let it relax a little before roasting.
- Start with the right pan or pot. A heavy duty roasting pan or a Dutch oven works best. It needs to be able to transfer from stove top to oven.
- Sear that meat! Using hot vegetable oil or olive oil, sear all sides of your roast on medium-high heat until there's a nice brown crust. This step will ensure all those delicious juices stay locked in and give it a gorgeous color.
- For tantalizing fall-apart meat remember these two words: LOW and SLOW. Simmering at a lower heat for a longer period of time will give even tougher types of meat that tender texture your family will die over!
- Slow cook for at least six hours, until the meat is fork tender.
- Make sure your meat never roasts dry. Keep it covered in its natural juices and beef broth for maximum juicy tenderness.
