Slow Cooker Beef Dip Sandwiches
Where do I begin to describe these amazingly tender and
luscious sandwiches. You know, I think I'm gonna call them sexy. Yes, I said
sexy. These are the sandwiches you make for your man if you are trying to get a
ring on your finger or maybe just trying to get him to finish that honey-do list
or heck, maybe you just want to sweeten him up a bit. These will do the trick,
I'm tellin' ya.
Maybe this is a better way to describe them: my husband
is quiet the entire time he is eating these sandwiches. Did you hear me?
Quiet. Not that he's a big talker normally. But we all know what it means when
folks are super quiet as they eat the
food you just prepared.
food you just prepared.
It
means my man was really enjoying this meal and that is bigger praise than any
spoken compliment. We eat these with some homemade
french fries and boy, was this a fantastic meal! And it was made in my slow
cooker - whoopee!
Directions:
Put beef roast in slow cooker. In a medium bowl, combine
Beef broth, Onion soup mix, Au Jus seasoning and water and stir until combined.
Pour mixture over beef, put cover on slow cooker and cook on low
for
about 8 hours. An hour before serving, shred meat with
two forks or take it out and slice thinly. Place meat back in the slow cooker
for another hour.
When ready to serve, place several slices of beef on
roll, add sliced mozzarella cheese and place under the broiler (or use broil
option on toaster oven). Watch carefully, broil for just a couple of minutes
until cheese is melted and roll is just slightly toasted.
Serve sandwich with a bit of Au Jus from the slow cooker
(you may want to strain it first). Also, I added just a bit more beef broth to
our Au Jus.
Cook's Note: Optional toppings include sauteed
onions, green peppers and mushrooms.
Also, instead of the water, you can substitute with more
beef stock if you like.
Enjoy!
