CROCK-POT PULLED BEEF POT ROAST SANDWICHES
Crock-Pot Pulled Beef Pot Roast Sandwiches are one of my all-time favorite dump-and-go summer meals. After searing the beef and onions on the stove-top, the crock-pot does the rest of the work, cooking the meat to pulled perfection.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chuck roast with a generous helping of salt and pepper on each side. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, add the olive oil until hot, but not smoking. Add the halved onions and saute just until brown and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Note: I've learned some ceramic crock-pots may be used on the stove-top in place of a skillet. You will want to check with your crock-pot manufacturer before trying this. Push the onions off to the side of the skillet.
- Add the chuck roast to the center of the hot skillet and brown on each side for 3-4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Add the onions and chuck roast to the crock-pot. Pour the broth over the top and the fresh rosemary.
- Cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 8 hours.

Steps:
- For the beef: Toss the roast in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker with the rosemary, salt and a generous grinding of pepper. Add the pepperoncini with their liquid and the beef broth. Cover and cook on low until the meat is very tender and easy to pull apart, 7 to 8 hours.
- For the caramelized onions: When the slow cooker has about 15 minutes left, heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the roast to a bowl and shred using 2 forks, then return it to the slow cooker to keep warm.
- For the sandwich assembly: Preheat the broiler. Put the rolls on a baking sheet and spread each with a tablespoon of butter. Broil until toasted, about 2 minutes.
- Heap a generous portion of meat on each roll, then spoon some of the cooking liquid over the meat. Top with a few pepperoncini from the slow cooker and plenty of caramelized onions. Put 2 slices of cheese on each sandwich and return to the broiler just to melt the cheese, about 1 more minute. Serve with potato chips and extra cooking liquid on the side for dipping.
- Allow the leftover beef to cool completely, then transfer to a resealable freezer bag with a nice portion of cooking liquid and freeze for later use. When ready to serve, thaw completely in the refrigerator, then heat through and serve with additional sandwich fixings.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, and shoulder are all good choices for pulled beef sandwiches. These cuts are tough, but they become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly in a crock pot.
- Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef in a skillet before adding it to the crock pot helps to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
- Add plenty of liquid to the crock pot: The liquid will help to keep the beef moist and flavorful. You can use beef broth, water, or a combination of both.
- Cook the beef on low heat for 8-10 hours: This will give the meat time to become tender and fall apart easily.
- Shred the beef with two forks: Once the beef is cooked, use two forks to shred it into small pieces.
- Serve the pulled beef on buns or rolls: Pulled beef sandwiches are traditionally served on buns or rolls. You can also use tortillas or lettuce wraps.
- Top the pulled beef with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for pulled beef sandwiches include barbecue sauce, coleslaw, and pickles.
Conclusion:
Pulled beef sandwiches are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for backyard barbecues, potlucks, and tailgating parties. With a few simple tips, you can make pulled beef sandwiches that are sure to impress your friends and family.
