Italian Beef

JoAnn's Note:

We enjoy slicing the roast as for a traditional roast beef, but many enjoy it shredded and piled high on buns. Great flavor and your house will smell wonderful as it cooks.

this was excellent and did fill the house with great aromas!! i added three large heads of garlic (minced)-but i do that to almost all recipes. i'm thinking of trying this with a pork tenderloin and adding vegetable broth in place of the beef broth i'll bet that will be equally as good! thanks for the great recipe!!

Very good. Made this in the crockpot (6-8 hours on low). As suggested, I shredded the beef and added garlic. Wonderful. A neighbor made this using pork and it was even better than the beef.

I made this tonight, and served it as a traditional pot roast, with mashed potatoes. I made it in the crockpot; let it cook all day on low. It was FANTASTIC!!!! Unfortunately, I discovered at the last minute, I didn't have a beer to add, so I just simply omitted it. It was still GREAT!!! I will definitely try the beer next time, but if you don't use alcohol, or just don't have the beer on hand, by all means make this recipe!!! I have considered my pot roast my specialty for awhile now; this blows my best efforts out of the water!!! An absolute keeper; thank you SO MUCH for sharing this recipe!
