Recipe Tips
Au Jus – You can take ¼ cup cornstarch mixed in with ¼ cup water. Stir that into the broth. Turn to high and stir until thicken so you get a nice thickened sauce. This is great to dip the sandwiches in.
Broil – To add flavor to your sandwich we like to broil the sandwich for a golden brown crust. It also helps to melt the slice of cheese for a delicious cheesy sandwich.
Cooking Time – We like to cook the beef on low for about 8 hours for best results. This allows the beef to shred easily for an amazing Slow Cooker French Dip Sandwich.

Ingredients:
3 lbs beef chuck roast
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 large onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups beef broth
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
4-6 hoagie rolls
Slices of provolone cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and sear the roast on all sides until golden brown.
Place the seared roast in the crockpot. Add the sliced onions, minced garlic, beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and bay leaf.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, until the beef is tender and falls apart easily.
Remove the bay leaf and shred the beef with two forks. Skim off any excess fat from the juices in the crockpot.
Preheat your oven to broil. Open the hoagie rolls and place them on a baking sheet. Fill each roll with the shredded beef, top with slices of provolone cheese, and broil just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve the sandwiches with a small bowl of the cooking juices for dipping, and garnish with fresh parsley.
