French Dip Sandwich/ Feasting in Fellowship Friday

This is one of my all time favorite sandwiches. I love how tender this roast is when it simmers all day in the crock pot! Serve with a buttered bun, melted swiss, and au jus for dipping… Mmmm!

Trim off fat from roast

Slice red onions

In a medium pan heat oil on medium high and brown roast on both sides.
(This will not cook the meat on the inside, just the first 1/2 inch on the outside)

Add one can of french onion soup and 2 cups of beef broth to crock pot

Add roast to crock pot 

Saute onions in the same oil and pan used for roast.

Place onions on roast, cover with lid and let simmer in crock pot on high for 6 hours. 

Roast will be very tender and flake apart easily when done. 

Open hoagie buns, butter and spread swiss cheese on one side. Broil for 5 mins until cheese is melted.

Add roast, onions, and au jus on top. 
Slice and serve with a side of au jus! Mmmm…

    Inspired by your posts about ministry–I realized something yesterday at the market as I attempted to grab a couple breakfast items for St. Patrick's Day. I picked up an extra box of lucky charms and a half gallon of milk. My neighbors have three kids whose young mom is recovering from a liver transplant..even a small gesture (milk and cereal) with a handmade card is a blessing to those in need. I felt encouraged that everything counts and I don't have to do it all–just do something!! Aha moment for me!!!

I just read the email you sent then I thought before I go I want to see what Janelle cooked up today:-) I am so glad I did as I took out a little three pound roast last night and drew a blank..LOL! Now I know what to cook for dinner and I have to buzz by the store anyway so I can get the rolls and cheese:-) Have a great day dear friend!
