French Dip Sandwiches--Slow-Cooker Version

If you want a real quick and easy recipe for French Dip sandwiches, try this other one.  I love french dip sandwiches, so I decided to try a recipe where I had to cook the roast and everything.  This turned out really good.  

INGREDIENTS:

1 boneless beef roast (appx. 4 lbs)

1 medium onion, sliced thin

1/4 C soy sauce

3 T worcestershire sauce

1 t beef base (or 1 beef boullion cube)

1 bay leaf

1 T pepper

3/4 t dried rosemary

1 t dried thyme

1 t oregano

3 garlic cloves, minced

Steak rolls, or french bread to serve (I like it toasted with garlic, with a slice of swiss cheese)

DIRECTIONS:

Trim roast of all visible fat.  Rub with a mixture of garlic powder, season salt, salt and pepper, then brown on stove before placing in slow cooker.  Saute onion in remaining drippings and add to slow cooker.

Combine soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, beef base, bay leaf, pepper, rosemary, thyme, oregano and garlic.  Pour over roast.  Add water until liquid reaches top of roast.  Cover and cook on high 6-8 hours, or on Low 10-12 hours (or until meat is tender enough to be shredded).

After cooking, remove roast from broth and slice or shred as desired.  Cook down reserved broth and use for dipping.
