Italian Beef - Crockpot

This is so easy, it's not even funny. Just a heads up though, if you do NOT like your food spicy, then do NOT dump the juice in from the pepperoncinis!

3 lbs or so of beef roast, sirloin, whatever you have on hand (never have used ground beef though)
small jar of pepperoncinis (save yourself some work & get the sliced ones - you can find these by the pickles - drain if a bit of you don't like it hot or all)
1/2 cup or so of beef broth (or you can use water & beef bouillon or cube)
about a tsp of chopped garlic
a tsp of oregano
a tsp of black pepper

Put roast in crockpot. Add all the rest of ingredients (drain the pepperoncinis if you don't want it hot)
Place lid on crock and fire it up. Let it cook 6 to 8 hours. Shred beef (that's when I know it's done) and serve on toasted rolls (hoagies, buns, etc.)
