Roast Beef French Dip Crock Pot
Tender and juicy Crock Pot French Dip Sandwiches make a fantastic meal for lunch or dinner. The meat is slow cooked for hours and then served on a toasted hoagie with melted provolone. Eat with a side of the salty cooking broth for dipping and you'll think you've died and gone to heaven.
I've been using my crock pot a couple times a week since fall started y'all. There's just no easier way to make a meal. And food that has been slow cooked all day develops a flavor that's hard to mimic. This Crock Pot French Dip Sandwich is one of my favorite slow cooker meals ever.
It doesn't hurt that it's served on a toasty bun with melted cheese. It's truly one of the most fabulous sandwiches ever.
I had a chance to meet Cris of Recipes that Crock this past weekend. Talk about a sweet gal. If you're ever short on crock pot inspiration, check out Recipes That Crock for tons of ideas. I think she's cooked everything imaginable in a slow cooker.
You can also follow my Crock Pot Pinterest Board for recipes. I pin crock pot recipes from tons of different blogs and websites.
I know most people use their crock pot to cook during the day while they are at work, but I'm a night time cooker. I'd much rather be in the kitchen late at night than early in the morning. I'll get everything in the crock pot before I go to bed and hopefully remember to turn it on. Have you had that happen too? This recipe does fine on LOW for 9-10 hours. Then in the morning, I transfer the contents of the crockpot to a bowl and refrigerate. Later, I reheat it for lunch or dinner.
After 10 hours in the crockpot, the roast is unbelievably tender and succulent and so nicely flavored from the garlic, onion, thyme, and beef broth. If you like your French Dip broth really salty, add an extra tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce or even some soy sauce.
Serve this fall apart meat on a toasted hoagie with a plentiful amount of melted provolone (you could also use Swiss or even Monterey Jack) and a side of cooking broth for dipping. You won't believe the oohs and ahs you'll hear.
There's nothing like a fall apart meat for a fall dinner 🙂
