Number Of Ingredients 13

3½ to 4 pound boneless beef chuck shoulder pot roast
1 cup low-sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons garlic pepper
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 small white or yellow onion (thinly sliced)
2 bell peppers (thinly sliced)
8 ounces cremini (brown button) mushrooms, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon minced garlic

8 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Trim roast of excess fat and cut into large 3 or 4 large chunks. Place in slow cooker. Pour beef broth and Worcestershire around roast. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic pepper, and salt. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 9 hours or until beef can easily be shredded.

Add mushrooms and garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until mushrooms have softened. Season with salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat. Transfer cooked veggies to the slow cooker with shredded beef. Load up hoagie rolls with beef and veggies and a slice of provolone cheese and pop them under your broiler until cheese has melted and bread is lightly toasted.

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!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, or rump roast are all good options for slow-cooker drip beef sandwiches. These cuts are tough and full of flavor, and they will become tender and juicy when cooked slowly in the crock pot.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef in a skillet over medium-high heat before adding it to the slow cooker will help to develop flavor and caramelize the outside of the meat. This will give your sandwiches a delicious smoky flavor.
  • Use a flavorful cooking liquid: The cooking liquid for your drip beef sandwiches is important, as it will add flavor to the meat. Use a combination of beef broth, water, and Worcestershire sauce, or try using a can of beer or red wine for a more robust flavor.
  • Add vegetables to the slow cooker: Adding vegetables to the slow cooker along with the beef will help to create a flavorful and healthy meal. Try adding onions, carrots, celery, or potatoes to your sandwiches.
  • Cook the beef on low for 8-10 hours: The low and slow cooking process is what makes drip beef sandwiches so tender and juicy. Cook the beef on low for at least 8 hours, or up to 10 hours for fall-apart tender meat.
  • Shred the beef and serve on rolls: Once the beef is cooked, shred it with two forks and serve it on toasted rolls. Top with your favorite toppings, such as barbecue sauce, cheese, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooker drip beef sandwiches are an easy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a mouthwatering sandwich that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a weekend gathering. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give slow-cooker drip beef sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed!
