Italian Beef Sandwiches

3 lb top round roast

1 envelope dry onion soup
1 t dried basil
1 t dried oregano
1 crushed galic clove
1 t crushed red pepper
3/4 cup dark beer

Add the roast to a crockpot small enough that it fits snugly in with not a lot of room around it. Mix the rest of the ingredients together and pour over the roast. Cook on low for 8-10 hours.

Remove the roast frm the pot. Turn the pot up to high so the sauce will thicken and reduce. Shred the beef and add back to the juices.

Serve on italian rolls with cheese, hot peppers or BBQ sauce.

This was a keeper for both Pete and I. He's not much for shredded meat, but loves the flavor of this.
