What to do with that left over pot roast...

When I ask my husband what he wants me to do with the leftover beef chuck roast, he usually says BBQ beef sandwiches. I just wasn't in the mood for that today ;-) So I reverted back to an old favorite that we haven't had in a very long time - Italian beef sandwiches. I added some garlic powder to the shredded beef along with the juice left from the day before yesterday's crockpot meal and put it back in the crock pot just to warm it up. So, here's how it goes;

left over beef chuck roast, shredded
left over cooking juices (add some beef broth if necessary)
garlic, minced or powder
hoagie buns
mozzarella cheese (or your favorite)
onion, sliced thin
butter

Saute the onion slices in butter until translucent. Split the hoagie rolls, spoon some shredded beef on each hoagie, add slice of cheese and top with onions. Bake in the oven until cheese is melted (I placed the tops of the hoagies along side the prepared bottoms in the oven).

To make this truly Italian beef I would have added some other seasonings - I can't remember which ones (Italian mix, of course) right now but you get the idea.

It got good reviews and a call for it to go in our 'favorites cookbook' and so it shall!
