Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 - 3 pounds chuck roast
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 can beef broth 14.5 oz.
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ cup cold water
- Additional salt and pepper if desired
- Bread slices
Instructions
- Place roast in a crockpot. Sprinkle roast with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the beef broth around the roast. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or until beef easily shreds with a fork. Remove roast from the crockpot and shred beef.
- In a medium pan, add 2 cups of the broth from the crockpot into the pan. Cook over medium-high heat until hot. Stir cornstarch and water together in a small bowl or cup. Add to pan. Lower heat to medium and stir constantly with a wire whisk. Bring to a boil and boil for 1-2 minutes or until the gravy thickens. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Place a bread slice on a plate. Top with shredded beef. Place another bread slice on top. Cut sandwich in half, corner to corner, forming two triangles. Pour hot gravy over the top.
Notes
- If you prefer flour-based gravy, be sure to check out my post on how to make the perfect gravy. It's just as easy!
- Try this recipe with turkey, chicken, or a pork roast! Follow the same recipe, using chicken broth in place of beef broth.
- Prefer an open-face sandwich? You can do that, too! Skip the second piece of bread on top.
- Love gravy? You can easily double the recipe for the gravy.
