Ingredients:
- 2 lbs beef chuck roast or top sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 hoagie rolls
- 6-8 slices provolone cheese
Equipment:
- Slow cooker
- Knife and cutting board
- Tongs
- Skillet (optional, for toasting hoagie rolls)
Instructions:
- Prepare the beef: Slice the beef into thin strips. If it’s difficult to slice, freeze the beef for about 30 minutes beforehand to firm it up.
- Layer the slow cooker: Add the sliced beef, green and red bell peppers, onion, garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper into the slow cooker. Stir everything to combine.
- Cook the beef: Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender and the flavors are well combined.
- Prepare the sandwiches: Preheat your oven’s broiler. Split the hoagie rolls and place them on a baking sheet. Use a slotted spoon to fill each roll with the cooked beef and vegetable mixture.
- Add the cheese: Top each sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese. Place the sandwiches under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Tips:
- If you prefer toasted rolls, butter the hoagie rolls and toast them on a skillet or in the oven before assembling the sandwiches.
- Add sautéed mushrooms for an extra layer of flavor.
- For a spicier kick, include sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes in the slow cooker.
