  • Garlic bread spread if desired
  • 6 sub rolls
  • 12 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  • Season both sides of chuck roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder and oregano.
  • Press the SAUTE button on the Instant Pot. Add the olive to to the inner pot and heat to hot. Add the chuck roast to the pot and brown for 4-5 minutes per side.

  • When the timer is done, let naturally release for ten minutes, then quick release. Remove lid and lift out rack. Transfer meat to cutting board and shred. 
  • Turn the Instant Pot to Sauté. Sprinkle the flour over the remaining beef stock. Whisk vigorously until flour is completely incorporated. Bring to a simmer until slightly thickened.
  • Preheat oven to 350 F. If desired, spread a sub roll with garlic bread spread. Pile bun with shredded beef. Top with 4 half slices of provolone. Transfer to a baking sheet and repeat with remaining buns. 
  • Bake for 6-8 minutes, until bun is toasted and cheese is melted. Serve with hot au jus for dipping.
