Ingredients

2 cups low sodium beef broth
1 packet au jus gravy mix
2.5 lbs top round roast
3 bell peppers cut into strips
1 .7-oz pack Italian salad dressing mix
8 hoagie rolls
8 slices provolone cheese
16 jar sliced pepperoncini

Instructions

Mix broth and au jus seasoning together in your crock pot. Add the round roast and sliced bell peppers. Sprinkle them with the packet of Italian seasoning.
Cover and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or on low for 8 to 10 hours.
Remove the roast from the crock pot and shred it with two forks. Return meat to the crock pot.
Assemble your sandwiches by laying cheese on the bottom of the roll, topping it with meat and peppers, then adding pepperoncini on top. If you want, add a little of the cooking liquid to the top half of the sub roll, or you can serve the broth in a bowl to dip the sandwich in.

Notes

I like using top-round roast, which is cheaper and has less fat than other cuts. The cut most often used is the chuck roast. I use it sometimes. If you use it, make sure to trim the excess fat away so the broth isn't too greasy.
