Slow Cooker French Dip Sandwiches
- 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2- 1/2 pounds Chuck Roast
- 1/2 whole Onion, Quartered
- 2 cups Low Sodium Beef Broth
- 1 whole Bay Leaf
- 12 slices Provolone Cheese
- 6 whole Sandwich Rolls
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Add olive oil into a large pot over high heat.
- Season chuck roast with salt and pepper.
- Add roast to the pan and sear over high heat until the roast is browned on all sides.
- Add the roast to the slow cooker along with the onion, beef broth and bay leaf.
- Cover and cook on the low setting for 6-8 hours.
- (I have found cooking it on high for 4 hours is not enough time for the meat to become tender.)
- Remove roast from the slow cooker and slice or use forks and shred.
- Strain the onions from the broth (make sure to reserve liquid).
- Set onions aside to serve on top of sandwiches if desired.
- Skim fat from broth (if any).
- Set aside.
- Heat the broiler in your oven.
- To assemble the sandwiches layer sliced or shredded beef on the bottom half of each roll and top each with two slices of provolone cheese.
- Set them on a baking tray.
- Place sandwiches under the broiler until the cheese is melted.
- Serve warm with a side of broth.
