Add the shredded beef brisket back into the crock-pot and the skimmed barbecue sauce and keep warm until ready to serve.

I toast 6-8 sturdy, crusty hoagie rolls under the broiler for a few minutes.

Top with a heaping amount of saucy shredded beef brisket and a slice of smoked {or non smoked} provolone cheese. Place the sandwiches back under the broiler until the cheese has melted and then top the whole thing with sauteed onions and pickled jalapenos {if you want} and serve! Truly the onions make it work.
