How to make French Dip Au Jus
For this easy Crockpot French Dip Recipe, start by making the beef roast. This is the easy part because all you need is a slow cooker!
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
- You simply put the au jus packets, Italian dressing packets, beef broth, and a 5 lb. beef roast into your crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
- After the beef is fully cooked, remove it from the crock pot and strain the broth with a metal strainer. The broth can be used for dipping sauce for the sandwiches.
- Then you just slice up the beef, place it on the hoagie buns along with cheese, and then warm the sandwiches in the oven for 10 minutes at 400°F.
Because it's traditionally served on a French roll. That was easy…huh? We like it on a hoagie because you can really hold on while you dip in that amazing sauce.
What kind of cheese is on a French Dip Sandwich?
For this French Dip recipe, you want a creamy white cheese such as mozzarella, provolone, or if you live in St. Louis like me, provel is an awesome option!
How do you make Au Jus for French Dip Sandwiches?
The au jus sauce will automatically be made in the slow cooker as the beef cooks. If you need more sauce you can always prepare extra according to package instructions on an au jus packet. But you should have plenty of sauce made in your crockpot as your beef cooks.
We use a top or bottom round roast (boneless chuck roast) for this French Dip Au Jus Recipe. It's okay to use a tougher cut for this recipe because it will get super tender in the crockpot.
