I have another tried and true French Dip recipe and also use another great one here on 'zaar, but when I went to make it the other day, I was lacking all of the ingredients to make either...so the following was born.

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Brisket, chuck roast, and rump roast are all good choices for drip beef sandwiches. These cuts are tough and flavorful, and they will become tender and juicy when cooked slowly in the crock pot.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef before cooking will help to develop flavor and caramelize the meat.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: The liquid that you use to cook the beef will add flavor to the sandwiches. Beef broth, water, or beer are all good choices.
  • Add vegetables and seasonings: Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery will add flavor and nutrition to the sandwiches. You can also add seasonings such as garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Cook the beef on low heat for 8-10 hours: The beef should be cooked on low heat for 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Shred the beef and serve: Once the beef is cooked, shred it with two forks and serve it on buns with your favorite toppings.

Slow cooker drip beef sandwiches are an easy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. The beef is cooked low and slow until it is fall-apart tender, and it is then shredded and served on buns with your favorite toppings.
