Italian Beef

Seasoned Italian Broth

Method

Italian Beef Preparation

  1. 1

    Sear the Beef

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef roast with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add sliced onions, Mancini peppers, and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker

    Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a slow cooker. Place the seared beef on top of the vegetables. Pour in the beef broth and sprinkle the dried oregano over everything.

  4. 4

    Cook the Beef

    Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

  5. 5

    Shred the Beef

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker, mixing it with the juices and vegetables.

  6. 6

    Add Cheese

    Top the beef mixture with shredded mozzarella cheese. Cover and allow to melt for about 10 minutes on low heat.

Seasoned Italian Broth Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of beef broth, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and adjust seasoning to taste.
