Four Ingredient Recipes- Italian Beef

OK so I live in the Chicago area and Chicago is known for many things: deep dish pizza, Garrets popcorn, crooked politicians and Italian Beef. So we are a little picky when it comes to our "beef" as we call it here; not Italian Beef just Beef. Imagine my glee when I found this too easy to be true recipe on my Kindle, of all places, earlier this summer. I thought it would probably be a bust but it only had 3 ingredients so I really had to try it, right?? It was heavenly....even the hubs (a self proclaimed beef connoisseur) loved the heck out of this. Take a look for yourself:

Italian Beef

source

1- 1 beef roast (size is not important)
2- 1 packet of dry Italian or ranch dressing ( I used ranch)
3- 1 C. water ( I added a little more and watched during cooking to make sure it wasn't getting dry)
4- sub rolls

Place all of the above into a crock pot (with the exception of the buns:) and cook on low 8 hours. Shred the meat and place back in the crock pot; ladle meat and juices onto buns.

Now you can always add sliced provolone and giardeniera to it as well; I used just the provolone and it was heavenly with that alone.
