Recipe(tried): Joyce's Italian Beef for Sandwiches (crock pot)

Italian Beef
Here's a recipe for Italian Beef. It's delicious and tangy. If you add BBQ sauce it makes THE BEST BBQ beef sandwiches. I usually use about 2 lbs of roast but I'm sure you could sub the brisket and just double the recipe. I cook it in the crockpot all day so it's really a no-fuss recipe. Hope you like it as much as we do! Credit for this recipe goes to my mother-in-law Joyce.

1 pkg dry Italian dressing
1-2 cubes beef boullion
4-5 sweet Italian peppers (optional; I omit for BBQ)
1/4 cup white vinegar
2-3 lb round roast, boneless (I use about 2 so the meat has more flavor absorbed)
1 cup water

On stove, brown roast in a pot. Take all fat off. After browning, transfer to crockpot and add water. Sprinkle dressing and pour vinegar over the meat. Remove seeds from peppers and cut into strips. Save for later. Shred meat as it cooks (just pull apart using 2 forks). Add boullion cubes. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or until almost done. Add peppers for last 30-60 minutes, depending on how strong you want the pepper flavor.

variation: add BBQ sauce with boullion.
