    You have inspired me..... I can see this on my plate some time next weekend. We will have it first as a pot roast with the usual vegies and homemade bread. And there will be sandwiches from the leftovers and I will make homemade rolls from the remaining bread dough. Yum. I can't wait!! Thank you for posting this recipe. :)

    This is absolutely delicious; now is there a way to get the recipe for the balsamic dressing you used? I would have that and then I would be completely happy. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipes.

      You can use any balsamic vinaigrette dressing in the store and it should work too!

    I used a kraft balsamic vinaigrette as I am in Canada and don't have access to the Miracle Harvest--this dish was delicious! I only used a 2.5lb roast as I was cooking for three adults and it provided a very juicy final product with lots of gravy! Delicious!!!

      Any kind will work fine. We used a sirloin tip roast.

    If I have left overs should I store them in a container with the juices or drain the juice and just store the meat? Thanks!

      We usually just store it with some of the juice to add liquid when reheating.

    Can a London Broil (flank steak) be used for the Slow Cooker Italian Roast Beef

      Yes you could use a London Broil. Not sure if it would be as tender.

    I'm thinking of making this for a women's luncheon. What kind of rolls would be best?

    I'm very new to cooking & love that your recipes are do-able for beginners like myself, so thank you!! But here's a silly question - it says Italian Seasoning "to taste". How much did you use? I need a starting point :)

      Hi Kelli, This is not a silly question. We are flattered that you would come to our blog! When we make this we just start shaking ingredients in. So I'm going to say about 1 to 2 teaspoons of Italian Seasoning. Start with 1 teaspoon and after a while if you think you need a little more flavor, add another teaspoon. We hope this helps. Feel free to add even more if you think that will appeal to your taste. Have a great day! Cyd (mom of the Six Sisters)

    Does this reheat well if I make it the day ahead and then pop the shredded meat w/ juices in the oven the next day?
