Slow Cooker Roast Beef French Dip Sandwiches are a delicious, quick, tasty, hearty dinner. Plus it’s one of the easiest freezer meals I make! So stop what you are doing, and add this to your menu of meals now. I promise you will be glad you did.
If you really want to show off (having a dinner party or guests) open up your bread, add the beef, and a slice of provolone cheese and broil it. It becomes a masterpiece then.
ROAST BEEF FRENCH DIP SANDWICH RECIPE
To begin with you will need a nice beef roast and two cans of Beef Consumme.
Freezer meal directions: If you are making this into freezer meals then just drop these ingredients into a ziploc freezer bag, label and freeze. See how easy this is for a freezer meal? No chopping, mixing or anything. You can thaw it out for 24 hours in your freezer the day before you cook it. Or honestly sometimes I will freeze this roast in the bag upright so I don’t need to thaw. I will then cook it a bit longer (like on low for 8-10 hours).
For regular directions, just add all ingredients to your slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours (or high 4 hours). I prefer the slow on low method, as I find the meat is more tender.
If you are home you might consider making some homemade rolls or buns. Or not. You can buy some at the store so they will be ready for you when it’s dinner time.
Then when you are done, take out the roast beef and shred it gently. It should be so tender it will fall apart easily. Then use a fat separator or stick the juice/fat mixture in the fridge till it cools to separate.
Add your beef to a sandwich and dip in the juice. YUM!

I made this but did t cook it long enough so it is a bit tough, can I freeze it and reheat/recook longer to tenderize it?
Mel says
I really like this. Instead of beef broth, I use condensed onion soup. It is so so good.

Do you freeze before you cook or after?
Karrie says
I freeze before I cook so can have it smelling good cooking all day on the day i’m eating it. 🙂
Jen says
Can this be cooked then frozen? I want to give it away with limited cooking abilities.
Karrie says
Yes it can. 🙂

I see that you added cheese to your sandwich, which type of cheese do you recommend?
