Season: Drizzle the roast on all sides with olive oil. Rub with steak seasoning and minced garlic on all sides. (You can adjust the amount of steak seasoning to taste.)
Sear: Heat a few drizzles of olive oil in a large skillet and sear the roast for 2 minutes on all sides.
Spray the slow cooker with cooking spray and arrange the sliced onion on the bottom. Center the roast on top of the onion. Drizzle the Worcestershire sauce over the roast.
Add the beef broth, bay leaf and thyme to the same skillet used for searing the beef. Cook over medium high just to deglaze the pan scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Pour the broth over the roast in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for for 8-10 hours or until the meat is falling apart tender.
Remove the roast from the slow cooker and slice or shred the meat removing visible fat.
Use a large spoon to skim the fat from the top of the jus. After slicing or shredding the roast return the meat to the jus and keep warm until serving.
Assemble: Slice the rolls and butter. Toast in the oven under the broiler. You can season the rolls with garlic salt, if desired. Once toasted, fill the hoagie rolls with beef and onions, then cover with 2 slices of provolone cheese placing back under the broiler to melt.
Serve immediately with the au jus for dipping.
