I'm originally from the Windy City so I love Chicago-style beef. These tender sandwiches lend an authentic flavor, and they're so simple to prepare using a slow cooker.
Ingredients:
1 boneless beef chuck roast (4 pounds)
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms
2 medium carrots, cut into chunks
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
6 garlic cloves, halved
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 carton (32 ounces) beef broth
1 tablespoon beef base
12 italian rolls, split
1 jar (16 ounces) giardiniera, drained
Directions:
1. Cut roast in half; sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, brown meat in oil on all sides. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker.
2. In a food processor, combine the mushrooms, carrots, onion, garlic and oregano. Cover and process until finely chopped. Transfer to slow cooker. Combine beef broth and base; pour over top. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until tender.
3. Remove meat and shred with two forks. Skim fat from cooking juices. Return meat to slow cooker; heat through. Using a slotted spoon, serve beef on buns; top with giardiniera. Yield: 12 servings.
