Prep Time 15 minutes
Servings 4 sandwiches

INGREDIENTS

  • 2-3 lb chuck roast
  • 10 oz beef consomme, can
  • 2 cups beef broth (I use 2 cups water + 2 tsp Better than Bouillon in Beef)
  • additional water, to fully cover the roast
  • 1 pckg dry onion soup mix (I use Lipton's)
  • 4 ciabatta rolls, split
  • 4 slices Provolone cheese
  • butter

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Trim away as much fat as possible from the outer edges of the roast. Put this inside crock pot, and cover with onion soup mix. Pour in the consomme and the beef broth and any extra water to just cover the roast completely. This just depends on the size of your roast.

  2. Let this cook on low from frozen 6-8 hours or thawed 4-6 hours. It's ready when the meat starts to fall apart.

  3. Once the meat starts to fall apart, remove it from the crockpot and shred with two forks. Once shredded, add it back to the pot and let it reheat while you prep for the sandwiches

  4. Butter the rolls and toast until golden under the broiler. Add the shredded beef as much as you desire and top with provolone and return to the broiler until melted.

  5. Ladle out a small bowl of the au jus for each sandwich and serve all together.
