Easy Slow Cooker French Dip
- add review
- #22048
The French dip is, without a doubt, the fanciest roast beef sandwich out there. And now you can make the beef and the savory au jus in a slow cooker with half the work.

ingredients
4 pounds rump roast
1 can (10.5 ounce size) beef broth
1 can (10.5 ounce size) condensed French onion soup
1 bottle (12 ounce size) beer
8 French rolls or submarine rolls
2 tablespoons soft butter
directions
Trim any excess fast from the roast and place the roast in the crock pot. Pour the beef broth, French onion soup, and beer over the roast.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4-6 hours or until the meat is tender.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice the French rolls lengthwise. Spread the cut sides of the rolls with butter. Place the rolls cut side down on a baking sheet. Place the rolls in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until heated through.
Meanwhile, remove the roast from the crock pot and place on a cutting board. Thinly slice the beef on the bias.
Strain the juices in the crock pot and place in small serving bowls.
Layer the bottom half of the cut rolls with the thinly sliced beef and top with the top half of the roll. Serve the French dip sandwich with the au jus (strained liquid from the crock pot) on the side.

Follow the recipe exactly. Remove the meat from the crock pot and then strain the broth through cheesecloth before serving as a dipping sauce. Use a good beer, cheap beer can make the sauce a little on the bitter side. I used low sodium beef broth because the canned french onion soup has plenty of sodium. You could use homemade stock and then just roast or caramelize some onions to add to it.

This recipe was really good! The house smelled fabulous and the kids giggled when I told them dinner was made with a little bit of beer! :)
