  • Total Time: 8 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 people

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 4 slices provolone cheese (optional)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pat the beef chuck roast dry with paper towels. Rub the roast with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3–4 minutes per side. This step is optional but adds extra flavor.
  3. Transfer the roast to the Crockpot.
  4. In a bowl, mix the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Pour the mixture over the beef.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  6. Remove the roast and let it rest for 5 minutes, then shred using two forks.
  7. Return the shredded beef to the Crockpot to soak in the juices.
  8. Slice hoagie rolls and, if desired, melt provolone cheese under the broiler for 1–2 minutes.
  9. Fill rolls with beef and serve with au jus for dipping. Garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add sliced onions or bell peppers to the Crockpot.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat with a splash of broth to keep the beef moist.
