Slow Cooker Philly Steak Sandwich Meat
This crockpot Philly cheese steak recipe uses beef sirloin, but it can be made using lower-grade roasts. The meat is always tender, and makes its own au jus if you like to dip as I do. To serve as sandwiches, put meat on a sub bun and top with sautéed onion and green pepper. Top with Swiss or provolone cheese and broil until the cheese just starts to melt.
