Italian Beef Recipe

The other night I tried out the Italian Beef recipe my Aunt Missy gave to me and it was super easy and delicious! Even Chad liked it!! I forgot to take a picture (I know, I take pictures of everything--how could I have forgotten)? I will try and remember to take one next time.

rump roast 2-3 lb
4-6 beef bullion cubes
2-3 tbs onion flakes or as much real onion as you prefer
1 tbs garlic salt
2-3 tbs italian seasoning

put meat in crock pot

add seasonings
cover with water
cook on low overnight

take out of crock pot and shread with a fork
put back in crock pot 1-3 hours on low

serve on sub rolls with your choice of cheese

FYI--Wal-Mart carries rump roasts. Bullion cubes are on the soup aisle (for those of us who searched the entire seasoning aisle several times and couldn't find). I used the McCormick italian seasoning spice (this is what Missy said she used). My roast was over 3 lbs and I used 5 bullion cubes, 3 tbs of the onion and italian seasonings. Chad added the water and looked like he flooded the crock pot. For future reference I would either cut the meat in half or not put so much water. When I pulled the meat out to shread I took off 7 cups of liquid(!!!) and still had plenty of juice to spoon over the meat on the sub rolls (We used white Cobblestone brand rolls, found near the deli at Wal-Mart, this is again what Missy said she uses). We used Mozzarella Cheese slices and toasted the sandwich in the toaster oven. Oh, I only put it back into the crock pot for about an hour or so. I figured it had to be done since it had cooked all night.


This is a very easy recipe and you can have several meals off of it. So, if anyone tries it let me know. I plan on making it again now that I have everything except the meat in my cupboards.

My spellcheck isn't working for some reason? So, if I have errors just let me know!!

I'M GONNA BE TRYIN' THIS!
Hey, if you look at the bottom of your screen where you type the post, you will see the word "labels". Type Recipes. Next go to the template tab and add another page element. Under this, click on the label button. Next, I believe you can just hit the save button and it should automatically put it on the side of your blog. IF you add the label, recipe, everytime you post one, it will automatically file over to the side. This means whenever we want to look up a recipe, then all we have to do is click on the catagory to the side, instead of searching through the archives....if you want to!
