For an extra layer of flavor, consider searing the beef chuck roast in a hot pan with olive oil before placing it in the slow cooker. This adds a rich, caramelized crust. If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Serve the shredded Italian beef on toasted ciabatta rolls with provolone cheese and giardiniera for an authentic Italian beef sandwich experience. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavor actually intensifies overnight!
