Method

Turn a large crock-pot to low heat. On stovetop, add olive oil to a large Dutch oven and heat over medium heat. Add meat and gray it on all sides, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove meat with a slotted spoon and place in crock-pot. In same Dutch oven, add onions and saute on medium heat for 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute for an additional minute. Remove onions and garlic with a slotted spoon and add to crock-pot. To crock-pot, add remaining 6 ingredients, red wine through crushed red pepper. Stir to thoroughly combine ingredients. Place lid on crock-pot and cook on low for at least 6 hours. Remove beef from crock-pot and shred with two forks. Place beef back into crock-pot with broth ingredients. Serve beef from crock-pot, using slotted spoon, with buns and provolone cheese. Let guests dress their sandwiches with their desired accompaniments.

 

Notes: I love shredded beef sandwiches, but hate the amount of sodium in them from prepackaged soup mix, etc. So I came up with my own version to control sodium, and love the results even better. We always serve these at our March Madness gatherings, hence the name Meat Madness.
