Description

These tangy, slightly spicy beef sandwiches are a snap to pull together and are sure to be a family favorite. Make sure you buy jarred peperoncinis, not their look-alike cousin banana peppers.

Ingredients

  • 2-½ pounds Beef Roast (use Whatever Is Cheapest--I Like Chuck Or Cross-rib Roasts)
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • ½ jars (16oz) Peperoncinis (I Use Mezzetta Brand), Plus Extra For Serving
  • 1 cup Beef Broth
  • 8 whole Sandwich Buns
  • 8 ounces, weight Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Preparation

Trim any visible fat from your roast. Place in the bottom of your slow cooker. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in half a jar worth of peppers (don’t include all the juice, just pick out the peppers). Note: If you want a bit more heat, add a few tablespoons of the pepper juice to the crock pot. Pour in beef broth. Cook on low 7-8 hours.

When it’s done, remove it from the crock pot and shred beef, removing any fatty bits. Remove the peppers as well, slice them and mix into the shredded beef.

For best serving results, toast buns, fill with beef/pepper mixture, and top with cheese and a few extra peperoncinis. If necessary, pop the sandwiches in the oven for a minute or two to melt the cheese.

Savor the goodness.

Made this again and this time topped mine with FETA CHEESE and OMG it was sooo delish. Also, as a sidenote, read your jar label very closely I made it once with banana peppers and couldn’t figure out why it was so bitter. Umm really helps if you get the right kind of peppers. :)

Loved it! I made it yesterday as an easy meal to pack in my lunches. I didn’t have beef stock on hand, so I used some of the pepperoncini juice and water. Moist and delicious!

Delicious! I made this for a friend that loves peperonicini’s and he ate it all up. I used swiss cheese and next time I might keep some more of the juice to make some au-jaus to dip the sandwhich in. I will definitely make this again, thanks!

Very good. Next time I’ll use more of the peppers to give it even more of a tang. I’d also seen a recipe somewhere that you cut little slits into the roast and put the peppers in the slits, so the pepper flavor really gets into the roast.
Good stuff. Thanks for the recipe.
