Slow Cooker Italian Beef Recipe

Krysta
This Italian beef is perfect for sandwiches. It's easy to make in a slow cooker and tastes just like my all-time favorite sandwich that I used to get at a local restaurant when I lived in a suburb of Chicago. Serve on crusty rolls with roasted sweet or hot peppers.
