Homemade Italian Beef Roast
Ingredients
  • 3 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 3 (1 ounce) packages dry Italian salad dressing mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 (16 ounce) jar pepperoncini peppers
  • 8 hamburger buns, split
Instructions
1
Place the roast in a slow cooker and generously sprinkle the dressing mix over its surface. Surround the roast with water, making sure it's completely submerged. Close the lid and cook on high for a prolonged period of time, typically 5 to 6 hours, or until the meat is tender and falls apart effortlessly with a fork.

Next, carefully lift the roast out of the slow cooker using two forks and shred it into tender, bite-sized pieces. Then, return the shredded meat to the slow cooker and add as much pepperoncini as you prefer for an extra layer of flavor. Close the lid once again and cook for a short additional 1 hour.

Finally, serve the deliciously tender roast on soft buns.
