I just made Italian Beef today to serve to 8 people. Always a winner. My recipe is very simple.
Place beef roast in crockpot and add an envelope of Lipton Onion Soup Mix, 1 to 2 packages of dry Italian salad dressing mix and 1 can of beef broth. Cook on low for 8 hours and shred with 2 forks. Depending on the size of your roast will determine the length of cooking time.
