Slow Cooker French Onion French Dip Sandwiches

Step 1

Place beef** in the slow cooker. Salt and pepper the beef.

Step 2

Add broth, worcestershire, onions***, garlic powder and bay leaf to slow cooker.

Step 3

Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until beef is very tender.

Step 4

Remove the beef and place it on a cutting board. Slice or shred the meat.

Step 5

Place a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl and pour the juice from the slow cooker through the strainer and into the bowl. This juice will be your au jus, dipping sauce. The onions, in the strainer will be used on top of your sandwiches. Discard the bay leaf.

Step 6

Add meat back into the slow cooker. Salt and pepper to taste.

Step 7

Pile meat on top of rolls and use tongs to place onions on top of meat. Place a slice of cheese on top of the onions. If desired, place the roll with meat and cheese under the broiler so the cheese will melt. Serve sandwiches with a side of the reserved au jus.
