We had THE best dinner tonight! I saw a link one day for some crock pot freezer meals and stumbled on this group of recipes from Six Sisters' Stuff.

The recipe for Italian Beef Sandwiches looked especially easy and delicious! And I was right! It took me longer to pick out the ingredients at the grocery store than it did to put it all together.
I picked up my ingredients at the local small town IGA so the prices may have been a little higher than if I had gone to a bigger store but it wasn't too bad. It was about $18 and will feed Adrian and I for at least 3 meals.
A few notes:
-I used a rump roast and it turned out great-nice and tender. The meat was under $6.00.
-It didn't say if you should drain the pepperoncinis-I tossed in the whole jar, liquid and all and it was great. It's hard to tell if it added to the flavor.
-We served with provolone cheese to make it like a cheesesteak (which I'm sure I'll start craving soon. Anyone up for a trip to Philly?).
-I cooked mine for about 9 hours on low - I think any longer would have started to burn the meat.
-This definitely has a kick to it but for me the pepperoncinis are mild enough that I can taste their delicious flavor.
This will definitely be a repeated recipe in our house.
