Ingredients
- 4-5 pounds chuck roast
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 can condensed French onion soup , 10.5 ounces
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup dark beer I like Strand Brewing Company
- 1 medium yellow onion , sliced into 1/4" slices
- 8 ounces crimini mushrooms , sliced
- 1 green bell pepper , sliced into 1/4" slices
- 10 Hoagie rolls
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Cheez Whiz or Provolone Cheese
Instructions
- Season the chuck roast with the salt and pepper (if you are sensitive to sodium, adjust to your taste or you can even leave the salt out altogether since you're adding broth and soup).
- Heat a large cast iron pan or Dutch oven over medium high. Alternately, if you can brown in your slow cooker insert that is best.
- Add the canola oil and when it ripples and is hot add in the roast and brown, deeply, for 4-5 minutes on each side.
- In your slow cooker add the meat, the beef broth, the french onion soup, Worcestershire sauce, and the beer. Enjoy drinking the second half of that beer!
- Note: If searing meat in a pan, I like to use 1/2 cup of broth to deglaze the pan. After you transfer the roast to the slow cooker, add the broth to the pan and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom. Transfer the broth mixture to the crockpot and add the other ingredients as usual.
- Cook on low for 8 hours.
- Add in the onion, mushrooms, and bell pepper in the last hour of cooking.
- To serve, toast your hoagie rolls with a bit of butter spread onto the cut sides.
- With a very sharp knife cut your beef against the grain.
- Add you cheese of choice, some of the meat and top with the cooked veggies.
- I like to have a bit of the liquid (with the fat skimmed off) for dipping on the side , but it is totally optional.
