Ingredients

  • 2-3 lbs. eye of round roast (lean beef roast)
  • 1 (7 oz.) jar sliced pepperoncini peppers*
  • 1 package dry Italian dressing mix (around 0.7 oz.)
  • 2 cups water
  • For serving: hoagie rolls, sliced provolone cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Trim excess fat (if any) off the roast and place in a large slow cooker.
  2. In a medium bowl, add the pepperoncini (the whole jar with the juice), Italian dressing mix, and water. Stir to combine. Pour over the roast in the slow cooker.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4 hours.
  4. Transfer the roast to a plate (leaving the juices in the slow cooker). Let the roast rest for 10 minutes. Turn the slow cooker to the warm setting (or lowest setting).
  5. Shred the beef (use 2 forks to pull the meat apart). Add the shredded beef back to the broth/pepperoncini mixture in the slow cooker.
  6. Serve on hoagie rolls.

Notes

  • *Use a jar of mild banana pepper rings instead of pepperoncini if you want the flavor without the spice.
