There’s nothing like throwing a roast into a slow cooker or an Instant pot and coming to fall apart beef that melts in your mouth. Our french dip recipe gives you delicious, full-flavoured sandwiches perfect for an easy meal!
FRENCH DIP SANDWICH
Stuffing fresh bread rolls with tender beef along with melted provolone cheese, then dipping it into a perfect au jus makes this an incredible sandwich you NEED to try at some point in this lifetime. Warm and comforting french dip sandwiches are incredibly easy to throw together using a handful of ingredients that are either easy to find at your local supermarket, or you may have them in your kitchen already.
HOW TO MAKE FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES
Brown your roast beef on all sides. Browning starts the flavour off in this recipe, mainly for the jus to rock your world. Sauté the onions while scraping up any browned bits leftover from the roast on the pan. THIS is important because browned bits = more flavour for your roast. I use a combination of French onion soup, beef consommé and beef stock to make the flavours in the jus incredible. If you want to go all out, try substituting the beef stock for Guinness beer, or a lager. Spread your rolls with butter before toasting in the oven because they taste better when buttered. Let the beef rest for about ten minutes before shredding or slicing to get those juices recirculating back into the meat.
TIPS
Add the shredded beef OR beef slices back into the slow cooker juices before piling into your sandwiches = MORE FLAVOUR. Use chuck roast or brisket for the best results and juicer meat.
HOW DO YOU EAT A FRENCH DIP SANDWICH?
Once your sandwiches are assembled and toasted, dip them into the incredible jus leftover in the slow cooker. Remember to strain the jus (liquid) into a jug for the best results! Whichever method you choose, you will love the ease of either method. A good French Dip Sandwich is coming it you in 3…2…1… You can also use ready made Brisket or leftover Pot Roast! Just combine the jus ingredients together in a pot and let it simmer for a good 10 minutes. For a slightly thicker jus, combine 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of stock, stir it in and let it simmer once more.
