Yesterday I decided to go with a crock pot recipe, one of my favorite things to do. It is so easy to just throw a bunch of stuff in, flip it on low and forget about it for hours. My go-to is always shredded beef sandwiches so that's what I'm gonna post. I chose a recipe that is slightly different than my usual but I liked it a LOT! It might become the new norm. I simply put the meat on a kasier roll (fresh from Publix bakery, they are the BEST) and get a bowl of the au jus sauce its been soaking it to dip. You can spice up the sandwich by adding whatever you want (melted swiss cheese, coleslaw, pickles, etc.) but I like mine simple. Add some chips and a soda and you have yourself and easy and yummy summer time dinner.
Italian Shredded Beef Sandwiches Recipe
Ingredients:
-3lb beef rump roast or bottom round roast
-2 cups water
-1 envelope zesty italian salad dressing mix
-1 envelope au jus gravy mix
-1 medium onion, thinly sliced
-Italian or kaiser rolls
Steps:
1. Cut roast in half. Place in a 4-qt. slow cooker. Combine water, italian mix and au jus mix; pour over meat. Top with onion. Cover and cook on low for 9-11 hours (only took 6-7 hours for me).
2. Remove meat. Shred meat when cool enough to handle. Skim fat from cooking juices. Return meat to slow cooker; heat through. Serve on italian rolls.
