Servings: persons

2 cups beef broth or 1 (15 ounce) can beef broth
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 bay leaf
1 (2/3 ounce) package dried Italian salad dressing mix (can use Zesty Italian too)
2 -5 lbs beef roast, weight depending on your needs (trust me, it works as well with 2 as it does with 5)
1 large yellow onion, sliced into rings

sliced provolone cheese, if desired
1 loaf nice crusty bread, if desired

1
Place the roast in your crock pot.
2
In a small saucepan, mix first 8 ingredients (broth through dressing mix) and bring to a boil.
3
Pour the boiling mixture over the roast, quickly put the lid on to trap in the heat.
4
Cook on high for one hour, then either turn on low for the next 7 to 11 hours (more time for larger roasts) or keep on high for 3 to 5 hours.
5
30 to 60 minutes before completion of cooking, add onions and peppers.
6
Re-lid, and cook remainder of time.
7
When done, remove roast to a large dish or bowl and shred meat with forks, making sure the bay leaf didn't also transfer over.
8
Serve either on a plate or use segments of the crusty bread cut horizontally to make sandwiches (recommended).
9
Top with sliced provolone, which should melt somewhat from the heat of the beef, and /or pepperoncini if desired.
