Slow Cooker Beer French Dips
"Indulge in comforting homemade French dip sandwiches that are easy, savory, and tailor-made for your busiest nights. Featuring slow cooker caramelized onions and an au jus broth for the ultimate dipping experience! French dip sandwiches are a perfect comfort food, and with this beer-infused slow cooker method, you can savor a delectable sandwich (complete with a rich, comforting broth!) with minimal kitchen effort. Before you dive into crafting these homemade French dips, here are a few key points: Beef Roast: Opt for a tougher cut (like rump roast, chuck roast, or sirloin roast) as it tenderizes beautifully during the slow cooking process. We used boneless roast, but if you choose bone-in, be prepared to extend the cook time. Beer: We went for a robust stout, but feel free to use your preferred beer. While IPAs can be hit or miss, Pale Ales, Stouts, and Porters usually complement the dish well. Bread Choice: Baguettes are our top pick for French dips, but any sandwich roll works. For a softer bite, consider a hoagie roll, a soft brioche bun, or whatever you have available. Dijon Mustard: Rub it over the beef roast for an added depth of flavor. Caramelized Onions: Slow cooker magic ensures that sliced onions caramelize beautifully, offering a texture close to the traditional buttery version. "
