3

beef chuck roast
2
tsp
sea salt
I love Redmond real salt
1
tsp
garlic powder
4
tsp
Italian seasoning
1
tsp
black pepper
1
c.
water
Instructions
Place chuck roast in slow cooker along with water and seasonings.
Cover with lid and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 5 hours.
After elapsed time, shred beef with forks and remove any fat.
Serve by itself or on a toasted hoagie bun with provolone cheese and peperoncini peppers.
Notes
This produces fairly salty beef, but if you are concerned that it will be overly salty, start with 1 ½ tsp and add more after tasting at the end.
