- 1 large sweet onion sliced
- 3 cloves garlic minced

- 1 ounce packet au jus gravy mix

For the sandwiches:
- For the sandwiches:
- Sourdough roll or hoagie roll
- A little oil for brushing the rolls optional
- Provolone cheese slices
- Parsley for garnish optional
- Chips for serving
Instructions
For the sandwiches:
- To make the sandwiches, first preheat the oven to 425 F.
- If the rolls did not come pre-sliced, slice them lengthwise using a large serrated bread knife. Do not slice them all the way through (that way the top bun is still connected and so the meat doesn’t fall out the back end).
- Place the bread onto a baking tray and lightly brush the tops with oil. Transfer the tray to the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes, just enough to toast the bread.
- Once the rolls are toasted to your liking, fill it with a large scoop of the shredded meat.
- Top it with some extra pepperoncini peppers if desired or other fillings such as lettuce or onions. Then place a few slices of provolone cheese on top!
- Transfer to a serving platter and serve with a side of the leftover gravy from the pot and some potato chips. Enjoy!
