I like using a chuck roast for my slow cooked roasts. It’s a flavorful and a cheaper cut of meat which is great when feeding a crowd or if you’re on a budget. And, who isn’t on a budget, right? It’s also a tougher cut of meat, so slow cooking it is ideal.
Slow Cooker Shredded Beef Roast and Pepper Hoagie Sandwiches
- Big Daddy loves roast beef sandwiches. If you’re not a fan of sandwiches, this shredded beef is equally as tasty when served over rice, mashed potatoes, or quinoa.
- I almost always choose a boneless chuck roast for my slow cooked roasts. You can use any of these options: shoulder steak, chuck shoulder pot roast, chuck seven-bone pot roast, beef chuck arm, rump roast or bottom round.
- For my vegetables I used red and yellow bell peppers and onions. You can use any color bell pepper that you have. I also used a jar of sliced pepperoncini peppers. You can substitute banana peppers or omit them if you don’t like the tang that pickled peppers offers.
