Great flavor and so easy to put together. I used 1 can progresso french onion soup and one can beef broth and let it cook for about 8 hours and it was delicious and tender. Served on toasted rolls. Next time I might add some provolone or swiss cheese.

These were great! I seasoned my chuck roast with Emeril's Essence and black pepper and browned it in olive oil before putting it in the slow cooker. I added minced garlic, sliced onions, Worcestershire sauce, lots of black pepper,a pinch sugar and a couple bay leaves. So tasty! I served them on toasted hoagie rolls with melted provolone. We ate these for two nights, once with french fries and once with onion rings. There isn't a crumb left! Thank you! Thank you to the reviewer who suggested straining the juice through a mesh strainer and coffee filter. It took awhile, but I had my hubby do it and it was worth it. The juice was delicious and not greasy at all!

Good but the juice was too salty to us. May be my fault though because I didn't follow this recipe all the way. I added a pkg of the au ju mix and ommitted the consumme and beef bouillon. I also seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic. Added 3/4 cup of water. Toasted buns and added provolone cheese. We dipped in sauce. My husband was impressed. Thank you.

According to my husband, this is the best beef I ever made! The only change I made was out of necessity, I didn't have a can of french onion soup, so I used an extra can of consumme and a package of dry onion dip mix and it seemed to substitute just fine! Would recommend this recipe to everyone!

Yummy to the max, with a couple of substitutions I made. I subbed the consomme for red wine and used French Onion Soup from the carton, that is ready to eat. Worked wonderfully, I used a sirloin tip roast and cooked it until it was tender but not falling apart. After letting it rest for a bit it Sliced for the sandwiches excellently. Definitely will use again.

tasted great! I had leftover pot roast from the night before, and just reheated that and heated the soups on the stove. Added swiss cheese to the rolls. Perfect!

This is really good and really easy. The only thing I did different was I browned the roast first and added an onion while cooking. I will be making this often. Thanks for the great recipe.

Excellent. I have played with it a few times and even if you only have chicken broth and french onion soup just add some extra beef bullion and it still tastes awesome.

This is a wonderfully delicous and easy recipe to make. I use this at least once or twice a month. I serve it on toasted keisers with provolone cheese and serve the juice on the side.

I was divided between this recipe and French Dip Sandwiches by Giselle from this site so I sort of combined the two and it turned out incredible! All I added to this was 1/2 c. of soy sauce, 1 tsp. of minced garlic, 1 tsp. of rosemary, and 1 tsp. of thyme. During the last 4 hours of cooking I also added a large onion sliced into 1/2 inch rings. I broiled the rolls with swiss cheese and these were some of the best french dip sanwiches ever!

Very good!! I even was told that it was the best french dip my father in law ever had. I added salt and pepper to the meat itself to spice it up a bit and toasted mozzarella cheese on some flaky rolls. I actually have another one cooking in the slow cooker right now for the Superbowl. I'm planning on using fairly small rolls for more of an appetizer feel to it. Thanks for posting this recipe!

Yeah! I made these for my sister's birthday because she loves french dips. She was totally happy with them! I doubled the recipe because between us, our kids and hubbies are big eaters. I also sauteed some onions, green peppers, and mushrooms for the ones that wanted that kind of thing. I buttered and toasted the deli rolls before assembling the sandwiches and after, layered on sliced provolone and stuck under the broiler until the cheese melted. As for the broth...I wanted a clear broth with as little grease as possible. However, I didn't think of making these far enough in advance to stick it in the fridge to solidify. Nor do I have a seperator. I DO have a hand-held mesh strainer (I would guess it's about 2 cup size or so). I placed a coffee filter inside it, placed it over a saucepan, ladled in some broth, and let it strain through. When all of that broth was through and just sludge was left in the bottom of the filter, I changed to a clean coffee filter and repeated. It took about 20 minutes and 10 coffee filters to strain a double batch of the broth, but it was SOOOO worth it. I just placed the saucepan over low heat and let it stay warm while I assembled the sandwiches. I am definitely making these again!

So good! I don't have a slow cooker so I dredged the chuck roast in flour, browned it in a pot added the liquid ingredients except for the onion soup, I added extra beef stock instead. Put a lid on and baked it in the oven for 3 hours at 350. Toasted a roll, sliced the roast added some swiss cheese and dipped it in the au jus. YUM!

This was easy to make and the whole family loved it. We followed the recipe as written except we added mushrooms just because we like mushrooms on our beef sandwiches. All we did was throw them in the cooker near the end. I don't think they changed the flavor of the recipe overall, they were just an added bonus that suits our particular tastes. I can also see other great possibilities using this recipe as a base, too, but it's so good the way that it is that I would be hesitant to tinker with it even though I generally tinker with recipes a great deal. When I asked my husband for a review of this one he said "the only I problem with the recipe was that I had to remind our son to swallow before stuffing his mouth again". Our entire family from age 4 to 44 was pleased with this one and we will definitely make it again!!
