Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by placing a 3-4 pound chuck roast into your slow cooker, fat-side up for optimal flavor.
  2. Pour in 4 cups of low-sodium beef broth over the chuck roast, followed by 4 minced garlic cloves and 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and set it on low for 7-8 hours, or high for 4-5 hours.
  4. After cooking, carefully shred the beef in bite-sized pieces and return to the pot.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and toast the rolls on a baking sheet for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Assemble sandwiches by layering shredded beef and provolone cheese on the toasted rolls.
  7. Broil the assembled sandwiches for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.
  8. Serve hot with strained broth for dipping.
