SLOW COOKER ITALIAN BEEF SANDWICHES
From Quick Cooking 2004 Since posting this recipe I again made it for supper one night. The tip roast did not turn out tender at all...as a caution I would make this with a chuck roast or other cut of beef that will turn out tender *updated 2/4/08* **Thanks to Internetnut for the missing ingredients - don't know how I skipped those but she is correct*** Added 2/20/09

Steps:
- Place roast in a 5 quart slow cooker.
- Combine the broth, beer (or additional broth), water, vinegar, soup mix, salad dressing mix, garlic, oregano, and basil; pour over roast.

- Season the beef generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
- Sear the beef in a hot skillet before adding it to the slow cooker. This will help to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
- Add plenty of vegetables to the slow cooker along with the beef. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the dish.
- Cook the beef on low for 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
- Shred the beef with two forks before serving. This will make it easier to eat and will help to distribute the flavorful juices throughout the meat.
- Serve the roast beef on sandwiches, tacos, or over rice. You can also use it in a variety of other dishes, such as soups, stews, and casseroles.
