Print Recipe

Warm, savory French dip sandwiches with tender beef, melted cheese, and crusty rolls dipped in rich au jus. Perfect for family dinners or game day crowds.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed of excess fat
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 packet onion soup mix
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 6–8 crusty French rolls or hoagie buns
  • 6–8 slices provolone cheese
  • Butter (optional, for toasting rolls)

Instructions

  1. Season beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
  2. Place the roast in the crockpot and add sliced onion, minced garlic, onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  4. Remove the beef from the crockpot with tongs and shred it using two forks.
  5. Skim off any excess fat from the au jus in the crockpot. Strain the liquid through a sieve if desired.
  6. Slice rolls open and spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides. Toast them under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until golden.
  7. Layer shredded beef onto the toasted rolls and top with a slice of provolone cheese.
  8. Place the assembled sandwiches back under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese melts.
  9. Serve the sandwiches with a small bowl of au jus on the side for dipping.

Notes

[‘Cooking the roast low and slow is key to achieving tender texture.’, ‘Toast rolls to prevent sogginess when dipping into au jus.’, ‘Skim off excess fat from the au jus for a cleaner flavor.’, ‘Use fresh garlic for richer flavor.’, ‘Low-sodium beef broth helps control saltiness.’]
