Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into chunks
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- half an onion, diced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1/4 cup brine from the giardiniera (optional)
- 6 (6-inch) crusty hoagie or sandwich rolls
- 1 1/2 cups DeLallo Giardiniera, chopped – hot or mild, either works
- 6 slices provolone cheese
Steps
-
Combine all ingredients in the Instant Pot. Cook on high pressure for about 60 minutes. Natural pressure release for 10-20 minutes.
-
Shred the beef (it should fall apart very easily when pulled with a fork). Save the broth / juices in the Instant Pot.
-
Layer each side of your bun with a slice of Provolone and place under the broiler until melty. Top with the beef and giardiniera.
-
Serve the hot sandwiches with a little dipping bowl of the broth so you can dunk your sandwich in and experience true soppy, cheesy, crusty, tangy Italian beef sandwich bliss.
