Crock Pot French Dip Sandwich

Tender and juicy Crock Pot French Dip Sandwiches make a fantastic meal for lunch or dinner. The meat is slow cooked for hours and then served on a toasted hoagie with melted provolone. Eat with a side of the salty cooking broth for dipping and you’ll think you’ve died and gone to heaven.

I’ve been using my crock pot a couple times a week since fall started y’all. There’s just no easier way to make a meal. And food that has been slow cooked all day develops a flavor that’s hard to mimic. This Crock Pot French Dip Sandwich is one of my favorite slow cooker meals ever.

It doesn’t hurt that it’s served on a toasty bun with melted cheese. It’s truly one of the most fabulous sandwiches ever.

I had a chance to meet Cris of Recipes that Crock this past weekend. Talk about a sweet gal. If you’re ever short on crock pot inspiration, check out Recipes That Crock for tons of ideas. I think she’s cooked everything imaginable in a slow cooker.

    7. How To Serve

    Serve this fall apart meat on a toasted hoagie with a plentiful amount of melted provolone (you could also use Swiss or even Monterey Jack) and a side of cooking broth for dipping. You won’t believe the oohs and ahs you’ll hear.

    There’s nothing like a fall apart meat for a fall dinner 🙂
