French Dip Sandwich

Step 1

Season roast with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large skillet/pan over medium-high heat. Sear roast on all sides until browned; transfer to a plate. Sauté the onions until soft, scraping up any browned bits leftover from the roast. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

Step 3

Place the roast in the bowl of a 6-quart (litre) slow cooker. Add the cooked onions, soup, consommé, stock and Worcestershire sauce. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until meat is fork-tender.

Step 4

In the last 10 minutes of cooking time, preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Arrange rolls on a large baking sheet.

Step 5

Remove roast, let rest for 10 minutes, then slice (or shred with forks). Strain the au jus (liquid) leftover in the slow cooker into a jug.

Step 6

Spread hoagies with butter; stuff the meat and cheese slices into the rolls. Toast the sandwiches in preheated oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese just begins to melt.

Step 7

Serve with small bowls of au jus for dipping.
