SLOW COOKER FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES
Learn how to
make French dip sandwiches in the slow cooker. The meat is cooked slowly with
onions, garlic and herbs. In the end, you have the tenderest beef and juice.
Add the meat to your favorite hoagie rolls. Garnish with cheese and put in the
oven to get it all nice and toasted.
Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 large onions, sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 6 hoagie rolls
- 2 cups beef broth (1 can is fine)
- 1 bay leaf
- 12 slices Provolone cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 1 (2 1/2 to 3-pound) boneless chuck roast, trimmed of excess fat
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
First, heat
the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the roast with salt
and pepper and cook until both sides are seared, about 3 minutes on each side.
Then, transfer
to a slow cooker.
Add the
onions to the pan and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
Add the
onions to the slow cooker with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, beef broth,
Worcestershire
sauce, bay leaf, garlic and thyme. Cover and cook on LOW for 9-10 hours.
Heat the
oven to 375 degrees. Cut the rolls in half and line the inside with cheese slices,
using 2 slices per hoagie roll. Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 5
minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Remove the
meat from the slow cooker and place it in a bowl. Use a fork to shred it.
To serve,
stuff each hoagie with beef and onions and serve with cooking liquid. Happy
Cooking Time.
