MIKE@90%: Slow Cooker French Dip Au Jus w/ Hand Cut Seasoned Baked French Fries (Gluten & Dairy Free!)


Hey my friends. I've gotten a lot of requests for this recipe I promised I'd post a few days ago. Not gonna lie, this may be one of the best things I have ever cooked! The meat literally shred apart with a spoon. So tender and the au jus was amazing. I got some really good gluten free french bread from a local bakery. You will want a quality bread for this sandwich. If you try it out let me know what you think!

FRENCH DIP AU JUS:

Ingredients:
-3-4 lb boneless beef chuck roast (thawed)
-1/2 cup gluten-free soy sauce
-1 tsp. beef bouillon (make sure its gluten free. I use the Herb Ox brand)
-1 tsp. garlic powder
-3 cups water
-Gluten Free French Rolls, Hoagies, Baguettes
-Manchego Cheese (sliced)

Directions:
-Trim away extra fat from the outside of the roast. Place the roast in a slow cooker.
-In a measuring glass, measure the soy sauce. Stir the bouillon and garlic powder into the soy sauce. Pour the mixture over the roast.
-Using same measuring cup, add 3 cups of water to the slow cooker.
-Place lid on slow cooker and set to cook on LOW heat for 8-10 hours, or until meat is very tender. Meat should shred easily with a fork when done.
-After cooking, remove the meat from the broth. Slice the meat with a knife if you prefer slices, or shred with two forks if you prefer shredded.
-Layer meat on sandwich roll to desired thickness. Add thinly sliced manchege cheese cheese.
You can serve immediately, or you can broil them to melt the cheese and toast the bread (I highly recommend broiling it!!!).
-Spoon broth from slow cooker into cups and serve with sandwich for dipping!!!

  1. The French fries were great. The thinner you slice the potatoes the more crispy they are. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet.
