CROCK POT (SLOW COOKER) FRENCH DIP ROAST BEEF SANDWICHES



Crock Pot (Slow Cooker) French Dip Roast Beef Sandwiches image

I have another tried and true French Dip recipe and also use another great one here on 'zaar, but when I went to make it the other day, I was lacking all of the ingredients to make either...so the following was born. Turns out everyone liked it better than either of my previous ones, so I figured I better post it for posterity!

Time 5h15m

Yield 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs bottom round beef roast
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
1 (19 ounce) can progresso French onion soup (not condensed soup)
1 (12 ounce) can beer
3 beef bouillon cubes
1/4-1/2 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
salt
10 kaiser rolls (or your favorite hard rolls)
provolone cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Place roast in 4.5 - 6 quart slow cooker.
  • Sprinkle with onion soup mix and then pour onion soup and beer over it.
  • Drop bouillon cubes in different spots into the liquid and sprinkle pepper and salt to taste over all.
  • Cook on high for 4-5 hours. (I guess you could also cook on low for 8 hours or so, but I haven't tried it!).
  • Remove meat and slice or shred; return to slow cooker and cover.
  • Turn to low and let meat soak up the juices until ready to serve.
  • Our favorite way to serve: open rolls and place a slice of provolone on one side of each; place under broiler until cheese is almost melted. Spoon beef on top with slotted spoon and serve sandwich with a side cup of au jus.

FRENCH DIP ROAST BEEF FOR THE CROCK POT



French Dip Roast Beef for the Crock Pot image

This is one of the best recipes I've come up with for beef roast. The cheapest cuts come out tasting like you slaved over a stove all day long. You can add potatoes and carrots to the recipe if you like, or shred it and serve it as a French Dip sandwich with the au jus juice from the crock pot on the side. If you are watching your sodium, use the lite soy sauce and it will taste just as delicious.

Use only low sodium soy sauce and beef broth for this, my family likes spicy so I add in some crushed chili flakes also, I have left the onion powder or onion flakes as optional if you are an onion-lover then you might want to include it --- any leftover beef gravy may be frozen to use later for gravies or soup bases

FRENCH DIP-CROCK POT RECIPE



French Dip-Crock Pot Recipe image

A really nice fireside supper for friends. Taste the Aus Jus first to make sure it's really "beefy" and add another bouillon packet if needed. Edit--if "heat bothers you" start with 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

Provided by Diana Adcock

Categories     Meat

Time 10h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (2 lb) rump roast
1 tablespoon garlic, pieces
1 tablespoon black pepper (start with 1 tsp)
4 tablespoons onion soup mix
2 tablespoons beef bouillon
2 (14 ounce) cans beef broth
1 1/2 onions, diced

Steps:

  • Coat roast in flour and garlic salt. Braise the roast on all sides on pan prior to placing in crock pot.
  • Place all ingredients in a crock pot.
  • Cook on High for 5-6 hours or Low for 8-10.
  • Remove the meat from the crock pot and place on a deep plate-to collect juices.
  • Strain the broth well so that it is clear and no spices or onions remain. Add a few cups of water to create aus jus.
  • Place in a saucepan and keep warm.
  • Most people prefer to keep the broth as is but you can stir in a small amount of cornstarch mixed with cold water to thicken it up just a touch.
  • (Remember to add the juices that drain off the meat).
  • Heat Hoaggie buns to warm and slice the meat thin.
  • Place a good amount of sliced meat in each of the buns and offer the Aus Jus in individual ramekins.
