this is our favorite italian beef recipe, it is great for a party, the holidays, gametime, or your family anytime. it also freezes well, and i think tastes even better after being frozen. we serve it on a crusty sweet bread, but any sub or hard roll will do..you want something that will hold all those delicious juices

SERVES 8 -12 , 8 -12 sub sandwiches (change servings and units)

Excellent results, bratty. I was careful not to use too many hot peppers. I used Good Season Italian Salad Dressing Mix Good Seasons Italian Salad Dressing Mix and Beef Au Jus Sauce Beef Au Jus Sauce.

    I lost my printed out first copy of this recipe to my dear neighbor who came with her husband for dinner last night. I served this knowing that they were bringing pictures of their trip to Italy to share. The meat was "delizioso"! Delicious! I will use it again and again!

    I can easily see you why this is your favorite italian beef because after trying it is has become ours as well. I started this early Sunday morning using a 3lb eye of round that I browned first as we like the addition flavors that browning provides. Threw everything into the crockpot and cooked about 10 hours till it all fell apart. I then put it in the fridge to await next evenings dinner. All the flavors intensified and dh said it was some of the best beef he has ever had. This is a really good winter meal that will be a repeat on my table several times in the next few months. You did really good Bratty!

    This recipe is a Knock Your Socks Off. A tried and true beef that has some kick to it. I started it at supper time, shredded it by bed time, placed beef back into the crockpot with the juices, put that in the refrigerator and in the morning all I had to do is put the liner of my crockpot in and set it and I was good to go. We served it over Chef Christian's Garlic Mashed Potatoes #53532 with a brocolli and cauiflouwer mix for our vegetable. I thickened the juices with cornstarch and water. Blended this in my crockpot and turned it to high and in 15 minutes the juices made a nice gravy. Thanks for posting.
