I have been trying to go through some of my favorite cookbooks. Over the years, I have collected several actually too many to count. On top of my cookbooks, I have a stack of Cooking with Paula Deen, Rachel Ray, and Taste of Home Magazines, so I have plenty to go round.
I don't know about you, but anytime, I thumb through a cookbook I always seem to find a recipe that I didn't see before. That is exactly what happened when I was going through my "Gooseberry Patch Christmas Pantry Cookbook".
I came across this recipe for Italian Beef Sandwices, and I had all of the ingredients on hand. Plus it was a crock pot recipe, so you gotta love that. This recipe called for using a truck roast which is my favorite cut of meat when I cook a roast.
The meat in this recipe turned out so tender and everyone enjoyed this meal. The original recipe stated to cook overnight with an addition 8 hours totallying up to 16 hours. I have found that this amount of time is not needed, and 8 hours is suffienent. If you're looking for a new crock pot meal then you really need to try this recipe.

Heidi, quick cooking is great to. I think they changed the name now. All the old issues i have are quick cooking back in the late 90's early 2000. That is why i always go back and look through them because you always find something new.
Ann, I put a note at the bottom of the recipe for time adjustments. I did mine from start to finish in about 10 hours. I dont think it needs to cook the whole 16, but that is what the recipe stated so thats what i put. It really is a tasty recipe.
God bless,
Amanda
I love your blog. I have been reading it for awhile now.
I tried this recipe last week. We loved it. I was alittle short on time so I cooked it for 4 hrs on High and then added the beef broth and then cooked it for another 4 hours on low. It turned out great.
