Equipment

  • Instapot or Crockpot

Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 lb beef roast
  • 10.5 oz beef consume
  • 2 oz dried packet of onion soup mix
  • 11.2 oz bottle of dark stout beer
  • 1/2 cup beef stock 1 cup if omitting the beer
  • Provolone cheese slices
  • Hoagie Sandwich Rolls
  • Butter

Instructions
 

  • Place roast in the instapot, then pour in the beef consomme, beer, beef stock, and onion soup mix. Cook on manual for 2-3 hours. I first cook the beef for 2 hours, then check to see if it is shreddable, if not then I cook for another hour.
  • Once the beef is able to be shredded, take it out of the instapot and place it on a cutting board. Take the juice from the instapot and pour it into another container, personally I like to separate the onion bits from the liquid by using a gravy fat separator…like this one.
  • This tool is definitely not necessary, but it makes separating the onion bits from the liquid super easy. Most likely, not all of the liquid will fit in this gravy separator. Leave the leftover liquid in the instapot and pour the onion chunks from the top of the separator back into the instapot as well. Set the liquid aside while shredding the beef. After the beef is shredded, place back into the instapot to stay warm. Make sure there is still a little bit of liquid in there so the beef won’t dry out while you prepare the rolls.
  • To prepare the rolls, preheat oven to 350°F. Butter the inside of the rolls and place butter side down on a baking sheet. Put into the oven for 7-8 minutes to warm the rolls and melt the butter. Take the rolls out of the oven and place a slice of provolone cheese on one side of the roll and the shredded beef on the other side. Close the roll to make a sandwich. Pour the beef liquid into a small bowl for dipping the sandwich into.

Notes
