Recipes Main Dishes Roast Recipes Slow Cooker Italian Chuck Roast with Peppers and Onions 4.7 (13) 9 Reviews 1 Photo Slow-cooked Italian beef with peppers and onions made in a crockpot for sandwiches. Provolone, Swiss, and Cheddar cheese are all delicious with this. My kids had hot Italian sandwiches on hoagies; I prefer mine over veggies like spaghetti squash or zoodles. Really, any veggies would work, as would mashed potatoes, rice, or grits. Don't forget to add the cheese on top if you're not doing sandwiches. It's absolutely heavenly without the bread, as well.
