Beef chuck roast gives this classic sandwich and its rich broth a hearty flavor. Add a crusty roll and you have a filling meal. This is also a great "do-ahead" recipe that can be prepared several days before serving.

Use the juices left in the pressure cooker for the dipping broth.

How do you make the broth for the dip?

Try a crock pot. I make country style boneless pork ribs in Woody's cookin sauce that pull apart with a fork this way. UMMM, good!

Would love to make this but don't have a pressure cooker. Is there an alternate method?
