Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds beef chuck roast
1 onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
4 hoagie rolls
Provolone cheese (optional)
Instructions
Place the beef chuck roast in the crockpot.
Add sliced onion and minced garlic on top of the roast.
Mix together beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper, then pour this mixture over the roast.
Cover and cook on low for 480 minutes or high for 240 minutes, until the meat is tender.
Remove the roast, shred the meat with two forks, and return it to the crockpot to soak up the juices.
Serve the shredded beef on hoagie rolls.
If desired, top with provolone cheese and enjoy with au jus on the side for dipping.
Notes
For extra richness, consider adding a splash of red wine to the broth mixture. You can also toast the hoagie rolls slightly before serving for a crisp texture.
