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.
