Take a chuck roast and season it with salt and pepper.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.

Sear the chuck roast for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and sear for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, including the sides.

Place the seared roast into the crock pot.

In a bowl, combine 2 cups of beef broth made with better than bouillon, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 cup soy sauce, and 1 cup Coca-Cola.

Add 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning to the mixture and stir to combine.

Dice one onion and add it to the crock pot along with about 10 sliced peppercinis and the roasted red bell peppers.

Pour the combined broth mixture over the roast in the crock pot.

Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours until the roast is tender and shreds easily.

Once cooked, shred the roast and return it to the gravy in the crock pot to absorb flavors for about 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly butter hoagie buns.

Toast the hoagie buns in the oven until golden brown.

Spread mayonnaise on the toasted buns.

Assemble the sandwich with shredded Italian beef, additional red peppers, peppercinis, and provolone cheese.
