Italian Beef Sandwiches

If you are like me, you LOVE your crock-pot! Throw a bunch of stuff in there in the morning and that night - Wa-La - Dinner! This is a recipe that my mother-in-law has been making for YEARS! I can't even tell you the first time I had it, all I remember is that I loved it and have been making it for the almost 9 years we have been married. It is always good - and you can't mess it up! I have made many different sides to go with it. Everything from mac and cheese, pasta salad, baked beans or keep it super simple with some chips and a fruit salad. I hope you try it and enjoy it!

Italian Beef Sandwiches

2-3 lb. Eye of Round Roast
1 pkg. Au Jus (found by the dry gravy mixes)
1 pkg. Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix (found in the salad dressing aisle)
1 Onion - cut in half
1 Cup water

Put roast, water and onion in crock-pot. Mix the Au Jus and Good Seasons Italian in a bowl and add just enough water to make a paste. Pour over roast. Cook on high 7-8 hours. When the roast is tender, remove and discard onion and shred meat with 2 forks. Serve on sub rolls or kaiser rolls. I also add mozzarella or provolone cheese to our sandwiches!

  1. Chrissy, I had to smile when I saw this recipe! We've been enjoying it since we lived in WF! There's actually some in the freezer now! Cindy must have gotten it from the same person my mom did...Jayma Cook!
    Have you ever tried subing the onion for a green pepper? That's the only thing different from start to finish that we do. Big Italian Beef question!!! Do you like yours so loaded with juice you have to eat the whole thing with a fork or do you prefer to pick it up! LoL
