Method
Season the beef with salt and black pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch Oven over medium-high heat and sear the beef on all sides for 8 minutes until browned.
Add the onion and garlic and cook for 4 minutes until softened.
Pour in the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a simmer, cover and cook over low heat for 2 hours until the beef shreds easily with a fork and reaches roughly 90°C internally.
Lift out the beef, shred or thinly slice it, and strain the cooking liquid into a jug to serve as the dipping jus.
Split the hoagie rolls, pile with the beef and top with Swiss cheese, then grill for 3 minutes until the cheese melts.
Serve each sandwich with a small bowl of the warm jus for dipping.
