Notes
I use a beef chuck roast, but a rump roast will also work. Seasoning your roast heavily with salt and black pepper adds more flavor. I recommend searing the meat first it adds a ton of flavor.
The soda adds a lot of flavor and I highly recommend it but you can certainly leave it out if you prefer.
If you want your au jus to be thicker add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to two cups of au jus and let it simmer on medium heat until thickened.
I use my 7qt slow cooker, but this will also work in an instant pot.
Any soft roll, bun, or hoagies will work great.
