Ingredients
3–4 pounds chuck roast
1 1/2 cups beef broth
1 large onion, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
12 slider buns (Hawaiian or brioche)
6 slices provolone cheese (or to taste)
1/2 cup pickled jalapeños or banana peppers (optional)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
1. Optional but recommended: Sear the chuck roast in a hot skillet with oil for 2–3 minutes per side to add flavor.
2. Place the roast in the crockpot. Add sliced onions, garlic, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth.
3. Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours or on HIGH for 4–5 hours until fork-tender.
4. Remove the roast, shred with two forks, and discard any excess fat. Return the shredded meat to the crockpot juices.
5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice buns in half horizontally, keeping them attached as a sheet.
6. Place bottom buns on a baking tray. Layer shredded beef, provolone cheese, and optional jalapeños or peppers. Add the top buns.
7. Brush buns with melted butter. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or garlic powder if desired.
8. Bake uncovered for 10–15 minutes until cheese melts and tops are golden.
9. Slice between each bun and serve warm.
Notes
Always let the shredded meat rest in its juices before assembling for maximum flavor.
Using a good melting cheese like provolone or Swiss ensures creamy, gooey texture in every bite.
Brush tops of buns with butter before baking for that perfect golden, bakery-style finish.
