Ingredients:- 32oz beef broth
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp ground black pepper
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 2 tsp dried basil
- 2 tsp powdered onion
- 2 tsp dried parsley
- 2 ½ tsp garlic powder
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 (.7 ounce) package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix (such as Good Seasons brand)
- 8lb bottom round roast cut into quarters and slightly de-fatified (yes, I totally made that word up)
Directions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except meat and bay leaves. Whisk together.
- Put meat into slow cooker.
- Pour seasoned broth mix over meat.
- Add bay leaves.
- Cook on low for 10 to 12 hours, or on high for 4 to 5 hours.
- Pull apart meat (I did it in a separate bowl for convenience).
- Skim fat from broth, remove bay leaves, and reintroduce meat to broth.
- Serve on Crusty French Bread with provolone cheese. (And for a really authentic flavor, dip the whole sandwich into the broth immediately prior to serving.) YUM.
This would easily serve ten. I freeze most of it!

I do one that i use a rump roast, season it and a bottle of Kraft Zesty Italian dressing....let it slow cook all day in crock pot and it shreds for sandwiches...yummy!!
ReplyDeletetotally making my mouth water. I love a good roast especially with mashed potatoes on a cold night. I bet this makes the best gravy. Oh man I am making myself hungry. I am so going to try this one.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am really loving it over here. Such good ideas and recipes. Thanks for posting. There are some great ones that I need to try.
ReplyDeleteThis looks fabulous! Great article about the comment from Bourdain. I don't think I've ever seen him in his chef's outfit before.
ReplyDeleteI wish i could smell this!!
ReplyDeleteUse the fat to make beef barley soup. Simmer it in water and then cool and you'll be able to peel the meat off the fat and have a low fat soup.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very good meal.I like to use Louie's Italian Beef Seasoning(www.louieseasoning.com). It is a package of all ingredients that you add to the slow cooker.
ReplyDeleteMade this last night when I had guests, served it more like a roast and used some of the broth/juices to make a gravy. Everyone LOVED IT.
ReplyDeleteVariations: I made it with half the meat (smaller crockpot) but the same amount of everything else (minus the salad dressing mix, I forgot to buy it). I also tossed in a chopped onion, 2 carrots, 2 celery stalks.
Shredded it this morning for sandwiches/leftovers, sieved the juices to make soup later.
Thanks!
Throw in some pepperoncinis, either whole or chopped, to add a kick to it. We sometimes use fresh mozzarella slices on ours.
