Description
Crockpot French Onion Beef Sandwiches are a savory delight, featuring tender, slow-cooked beef infused with rich onion flavor. The combination of melted cheese and a crusty roll creates a satisfying texture that complements the juicy, flavorful meat perfectly.
Ingredients
- Beef: 2 pounds of chuck roast, trimmed and cut into large chunks
- Onions: 4 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- Broth: 4 cups beef broth
- Seasonings: 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste
- Cheese: 8 slices of provolone cheese
- Bread: 4 crusty hoagie rolls, sliced open
Instructions
- In a large skillet, sauté the sliced onions over medium heat until they are caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.
- Transfer the caramelized onions to the crockpot and add the beef chunks, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and easily shredded.
- Once cooked, shred the beef with two forks and stir to combine with the onions and broth.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place the hoagie rolls on a baking sheet, fill each with the beef mixture, and top with provolone cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Make-ahead: The beef can be cooked a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Reheat before serving.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Substitutions: Use Swiss cheese instead of provolone for a different flavor.
