Ingredients

  • 3-4 pound beef chuck roast
  • 1 package dry onion soup mix
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 5 cups water
  • 1 large onion sliced in 1/8ths (big slices!)
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Mushrooms (optional) you can use canned or sliced fresh
  • 8 Hoagie Rolls toasted
  • 8 slices of cheese we use provolone or swiss

Instructions

  • Place the roast in the crockpot, cover with onion soup, minced garlic, and sliced onions. (+ mushrooms if adding)
  • Pour soy sauce and water over the top.
  • Cover and slow cook on low all day. (6-8 hours) The meat will literally fall apart.
  • Shred meat and place back in the slow cooker.
  • I like to toast our hoagie rolls in the oven for about 3 minutes.
  • Place a slice or two of cheese on each hoagie roll, top with meat.
  • Serve with the au jus it made on the side for dipping.

Notes

I highly recommend using a chuck roast for this recipe to get that fall apart tender meat!
*If you are lucky enough to live where you can buy Rotella Hoagie rolls, toast them in the oven for about 3 minutes on 375 degrees.  It makes them perfectly crusty! Mmmmm.
