Put beef chuck roast in a slow cooker with these 5 ingredients. You’ll savor every juicy bite.

French dip sandwiches are a classic comfort food that bring a bit of indulgence to any meal. Originating from Los Angeles in the early 20th century, these sandwiches have become a staple for anyone who loves savory, juicy beef paired with a crusty roll. As someone who’s always on the go, I love using my slow cooker to make these sandwiches with minimal effort. With just six ingredients, you can have a delicious meal that feels like a treat without spending hours in the kitchen.
These French dip sandwiches pair perfectly with a side of crispy sweet potato fries or a fresh green salad. If you’re feeling a bit more indulgent, some creamy coleslaw or a bowl of warm, hearty soup would complement the sandwiches beautifully. Don’t forget to have some extra au jus on the side for dipping!
Slow Cooker 6-Ingredient French Dip Sandwiches
Servings: 6

Ingredients
3 pounds beef chuck roast
1 packet (1 ounce) dry onion soup mix
1 can (10.5 ounces) beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
6 hoagie rolls
6 slices provolone cheese
Directions
Place the beef chuck roast in the slow cooker.
Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix over the roast.
Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the top.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the hoagie rolls on a baking sheet and fill each with shredded beef.
Top each sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve the sandwiches with a small bowl of the cooking liquid for dipping.
Variations & Tips
For a bit of a kick, you can add sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the beef before cooking. If you prefer a different cheese, Swiss or mozzarella are great alternatives to provolone. For a lower-carb option, you can serve the beef and cheese over a bed of greens instead of in a roll. To save time on busy mornings, prep the ingredients the night before and store them in the fridge, then just pop everything into the slow cooker before heading out the door.
