Savory tender chuck roast is slow cooked to perfection and seeped in flavorful spices. Topped with melty swiss cheese and served on a crusty, fluffy hoagie roll and a side of delicious au jus sauce!
Place roast in slow cooker. Sprinkle dried thyme, garlic, salt and pepper over roast. Add quartered onion and the bay leaf.
In a separate bowl whisk together soy sauce, Coke, beef stock, and water. Pour into slow cooker. Cover and cook on high 4 hours or on low 8 hours
When ready to serve, remove roast and drain juices from the slow cooker. Discard onions and bay leaf. If there is any fat, strain it from broth. Transfer the broth to a serving bowl.
Split rolls and line the bottoms on a baking tray. Top each half with beef followed by slices of cheese and red pepper. Place the opened rolls under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve with reserved au jus.
