Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. , Remove meat; shred with two forks and return to the slow cooker. Add pepper rings; heat through.

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar in water and add yeast to proof. Rest one to two minutes.
• Melt butter and, along with the salt, stir into yeast mixture.
• Mix in flour, 1 cup at a time until desired consistency is reached (this dough should not be terribly stick to the touch, but should have plenty of "give" and not be too tough).
• Knead until VERY well developed (important!). Your dough is finished when you can tear a small piece off, roll into a ball and stretch to form a nearly transparent "window" between your fingers without it tearing.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let stand until doubled in bulk (approx 40 minutes).
• Lightly dust a small amount of corn meal over well-greased pans, roll your dough into long, thin "logs" and place about 3" apart on the pans. Slash each loaf every inch and a half with a knife, brush with egg white and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
• Let double in size.
• Bake in a 400°F oven until golden brown.

Steps:

• Combine yeast with tepid but not warm water and let sit until convinced the yeast isn't dead, 10 minutes maximum.
• In a large bowl, combine most of the flour, oil and salt, add the water/yeast, and stir/add flour until the ball pulls away from the bowl.
• Sprinkle flour over a kneading surface and over the ball, and knead for about 7 minutes.
• Lightly oil a bowl and allow to rise until doubled, usually about 50-60 minutes if in a barely warm place.
• Punch down the dough, divide into quarters, and shape into 4 hoagies roughly 6" x 3.5" or so. Allow to rise for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven at 425, with a baking stone in the center rack and a ceramic dish on the bottom while the bread rises.
• Transfer the rolls to the stone, return the stone to the center rack, and turn the heat down to 375.
• For each of the first 4 minutes baking, toss a dash of water across the bottom of the ceramic dish to create steam.
• The rolls should be medium brown and more than doubled in height within 29-30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine beef and seasoned salt. Shape into four 7x2-1/2-in. oval-shaped patties. , In a large skillet, cook patties over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160° and meat juices run clear. , Spread cream cheese over cut side of buns.

• *I use Tyson(fully cooked)Southwest Chicken Breast Strips for this this, but it just would NOT go into the computor right.
• **Note: You can make these with a purchased rotisserie chicken from your local grocery store, too. Just pick the meat off, and cut it into pieces. Leftover chicken, even BBQ'ed, also works well for this. In a PINCH, canned chicken (2-3 large cans) drained, also works.
• Just use whatever you have on hand for convenience or have a taste for!
