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!

Provided by Karen..

Time 5h15m

Yield 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs bottom round beef roast
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope onion soup mix

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.

HERB ROAST BEEF (SLOW COOKER)



Herb Roast Beef (Slow Cooker) image

I was surprised to see so many "crock pot" recipes out there that call for soup mixes and other processed ingredients. What ever happened to a good old fashioned slow cooked roast!? Here's my contribution. Onions are essential as they basically create a stock/gravy which is used to flavour the meat and the liquid can be reduced to create a delicious jus or gravy to serve over the meat.

Provided by Veggiequeen

Categories     Roast Beef

Time 4h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (1 1/2 kg) topside beef roast (approx)
2 brown onions, chopped roughly
1 brown onion, diced very finely
7 -8 garlic cloves, smashed
salt, to taste
2 cups water
handful fresh thyme sprig, chopped
3 -4 fresh rosemary sprigs, chopped
handful fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Reserve 1 unchopped rosemary sprig and several garlic cloves. (You will use this garlic and rosemary to poke into the meat to add extra flavour).
  • Put all other ingredients except the meat in the slow cooker on high. Put lid on to allow mixture to warm in the slow cooker.
  • Meanwhile, braise the meat on all sides in a separate frying pan using a spoonful of oil, until meat is lightly browned. This step is designed to seal in the juices as topside meat is usually quite dry. Braising should take around 5 minutes.
  • Once braised, gently set meat on top of onion mixture in slow cooker.
  • Poke reserved garlic and rosemary into folds in meat and leave to cook.
  • Roast 4-5 hours on high until meat is tender and falling apart. Cook time wil depend on size of roast.
  • Serve with your favourite roasted vegetables.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, or brisket are all good choices for slow-cooker roast beef.
  • 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 its flavor.
  • Add plenty of liquid: The beef should be mostly covered in liquid in the slow cooker. You can use water, beef broth, or a combination of both.
  • Add vegetables and herbs: Adding vegetables and herbs to the slow cooker along with the beef will help to create a flavorful broth and tender meat.
  • Cook on low for 8-10 hours: The beef should be cooked on low for at least 8 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Let the beef rest before serving: Let the beef rest for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooker roast beef is a delicious, easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. With a little planning, you can have a tasty and satisfying meal on the table with minimal effort. So next time you're looking for a simple and flavorful dinner, give slow-cooker roast beef a try.
