SLOW COOKER FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS 8PP

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper. Rub the spice mixture onto all sides of the roast, then place in the slow cooker. Pour the broth into the side of the roast until it just cover the meat. If the broth doesn't cover the roast you can add water and top with onions. Add the Worcestershire sauce, peppercorns and bay leaf to the broth. Cover and cook on low until the meat flakes apart easily with a fork, about 9 to 12 hours, depending on the size of your roast. An hour before the meat is done, prepare the onions and peppers. In a large nonstick skillet heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and salt and cook until golden, stirring often, reducing heat as needed if the onions are burning or browning too quickly, about 30 to 35 minutes. Add 1 tbsp to the pan if it becomes too dry. The onions should turn golden and the flavor should be sweet. Transfer to a serving bowl, then add the peppers to the skillet and cook stirring often until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the meat from the slow cooker to a cutting board and shred with a fork or slice with a knife. Strain the broth through a fine sieve then place in a gravy separator to remove any fat. Pour 1/4 cup broth into each small ramekin. Preheat the oven to broil. Split the bread open and top with 2 ounces of beef. Top with onions, peppers and cheese and broil until the cheese melts. Place on a plate with broth for dipping. Nutrition based on: 2 oz whole wheat baguette, 2 oz cooked beef round, 1/4 cup beef broth, 1 slice cheese, onions & peppers.

SLOW COOKER FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES

Steps:

• 1. Trim excess fat off of beef roast and season meat all over with salt and pepper. Pour beef broth, condensed French onion soup, red wine and garlic powder into slow cooker and place beef roast into liquid. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Slow cookers have different time intervals that you can select, so work with your cooker. Depending on how the settings on your slow cooker work, the time will vary. Since this is cooking in liquid, you don't have to worry about the meat drying out in the same way you might if you were roasting the meat in the oven. Mine took 7 1/2 hours and was falling apart tender. Take beef out and rest it, covered with aluminum foil, for about 15 minutes. Slice beef and return to slow cooker on low or very low for 30 minutes. Lightly toast the bread and evenly distribute cheese between rolls, if using. Divide beef onto rolls and spoon the beef juice* into ramekins or other small bowls and eat everything while it is hot. Serve each sandwich with its own dip.
• 2. *Note: If there is excess fat in your au jus, simply pour it from the slow cooker into a large measuring cup and let it stand for about 5 minutes so the fat separates. Skim it off, then pour the juice into serving cups.

SLOW-COOKER FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES

Steps:

• If beef roast comes in netting or is tied, do not remove. In 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker, place beef. In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients except bread; pour over beef.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 7 to 8 hours.
• Skim fat from surface of juices in cooker; discard bay leaf and peppercorns. Remove beef from cooker; place on cutting board. Remove netting or strings from beef. Cut beef into thin slices. Cut each loaf of bread into 5 pieces, about 4 inches long; cut horizontally in half. Fill bread with beef. Serve with broth for dipping.

SLOW-COOKER FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES

Steps:

• 1. Season the chuck roast. Remove the roast from its packaging and pat dry with paper towels. Generously season on all sides with salt and pepper.
• 2. Sear the roast. Warm 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the roast and sear until it releases easily from the pan and has formed a brown crust, 5 to 10 minutes. Flip and sear the other side. When done, transfer the seared roast to a 6 quart or larger slow cooker.
• 3. Cook the onions. If the pan is dry, add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions just start to soften and turn translucent around the edges - they will finish cooking through in the slow cooker.
• 4. Deglaze the pan. Add the wine. As it bubbles and simmers, scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Pour the wine and the onions over the roast in the slow cooker.
• 5. Add the broth and bay leaf to the slow cooker. Add the broth and bay leaf to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
• 6. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Cover and cook until the roast is tender, 6 to 8 hours on the LOW setting.
• 7. Slice the meat midway through cooking (optional). If you're nearby at around the 4-hour mark, remove the roast from the slow cooker and slice into 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick pieces. It's easier to slice the roast at this point, but isn't strictly necessary for the recipe. Return the sliced meat to the slow cooker and continue to cook for the remaining time.
• 8. Toast the buns. When it's close to time to serve, heat the oven to 400°F. Butter both halves of the buns and place cut-side up on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven until the buns are just starting to turn golden, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven. If you like, spoon a little of the cooking juices onto the bottom half of the buns before adding the meat.
• 9. Lift the meat from the juices. If you sliced the roast already, lift it from the juices with tongs and divide it equally between the bottom halves of the buns. If you did not yet slice the roast, lift it to a cutting board and slice it as thinly as you can, or shred the meat if it will no longer hold together in slices. Divide the meat between the bottom halves of the buns, and spoon a little extra cooking juice on top, if you like.
• 10. Top with cheese and toast. Top the piles of roast beef with cheese, if using. Switch the oven to broil, and toast the bottom halves of sandwiches until the cheese starts to melt, about 1 minute.
• 11. Strain the liquid. Strain the cooking liquid into a measuring cup or serving bowl. Pick out the onions and either serve with the sandwiches or use for another purpose. As the jus sits, skim the fat that rises to the top.
• 12. Serve with jus. Top the sandwiches with the top halves of the buns. Serve with bowls of the cooking juices on the side for dipping.
