Ingredients

  • 1 jar (11-1/2 ounces) pepperoncini
  • 1 boneless beef chuck roast (3-1/2 to 4 pounds)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1-3/4 teaspoons dried basil
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large onion, sliced and quartered
  • 12 hard rolls, split

Method

  • Drain the pepperoncini, reserving liquid. Remove and discard stems of peppers; set peppers aside. Cut roast into large chunks; place a third of the meat in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add water.
  • In a small bowl, combine the seasonings; sprinkle half over beef. Layer with half of the remaining meat, then the onion and pepperoncini. Pour pepperoncini liquid over the top. Add remaining meat to slow cooker; sprinkle with remaining seasonings.
  • Cover and cook on low until meat is tender, 8-9 hours. Shred beef with two forks. Using a slotted spoon, serve beef and peppers on rolls.
