Crock Pot French Dip Sandwiches

Who needs a good recipe to warm up their rainy weekend?  These roast beef onion french dip sandwiches are so yummy and only take a few ingredients.  You just throw everything in a crock pot and let it cook all day.  I love having the crock pot on on rainy fall days!

What you need:

 3-5 pound beef roast

1 envelope au jus gravy mix

1 envelope lipton onion soup mix

4 cups (2- 10.5 oz cans) low sodium beef broth

6-8 crusty sub buns

provolone cheese slices

- place the roast in the crock pot and sprinkle with salt and pepper

- in a bowl, mix together the au jus mix, onion soup mix, and beef broth

- pour mixture over roast

- cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 5-7 hours

- when the roast is done, take it out and shred it

- preheat broiler

- cut the buns lengthwise and place on a cookie sheet

- fill the buns with cheese and beef

- cook for 2-3 minutes until cheese melts

- ladle the juice through a strainer into individual bowls and use for dipping the sandwiches
