Instructions

Prepare

  1. Add the roast and broth to the insert of a 6 quart or larger slow cooker.

Mix seasonings

  1. In a small mixing bowl, add the Italian dressing seasoning mix, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir to combine well.

Season beef

  1. Rub seasonings into the roast, on all sides.
  2. Top roast with pepperoncini peppers and drained giardiniera.

Cook

  1. Cover and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours. You can cook this on high for about 4-5 hours, but for the most tender beef, I highly recommend cooking on low.

Shred

  1. Use tongs to remove the beef from the slow cooker and place on a plate (or a bowl), and shred using two forks.
  2. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and stir.

Serve

  1. Serve shredded beef on a hoagie roll, topped with some additional pepperoncini peppers and drained giardiniera. Add some of the cooking liquid to a small bowl for dipping if desired.

Notes

  • I've estimated this recipe serves 8, but you're free to divide it up into as many servings as you'd like.
