Italian Beef:
2-3 lb.beef roast (I like to use rump roast)
1 jar medium or hot pepper rings (I use home-canned peppers)
1 onion, sliced or chopped
1 can beer OR 1 cup water
2 envelopes zesty Italian salad dressing mix
Put all in the crock pot and simmer for 6-8 hours or until meat can be easily pulled apart with a fork. Serve plain or as a great sandwich on rolls with the cooling liquid on the side.
