- Shred beef -- you can do this on another plate or in slow cooker. Return meat to pot to simmer in juice until ready to serve
- To make sandwiches, place sliced provolone cheese on both sides of a cut roll, add shredded beef, place on baking sheet, and bake in 350 degree oven until cheese melts. Top with additional pepperoncini and more juice, if desired

You can sear the roast prior to slow cooking if desired.
Sub Italian dressing mix for the seasoning blend if desired.
Total cook time depends on the brand and size of your slow cooker. If the meat is tough when you try to shred it, it needs to cook longer.
