Description

Tender shredded beef, slow-cooked to perfection, topped with melted mozzarella and jalapeños on toasted bread. A hearty and satisfying meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lbs (1 kg) boneless Certified Angus Beef chuck roast
  • 10.5 oz (300 g) French Onion Soup
  • 10.5 oz (300 ml) water
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 0.5 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1 French Loaf
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup (237 ml) jarred sliced jalapenos
  • 0.25 cup (60 ml) shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Place beef chuck roast into your crockpot. Add French Onion Soup, water, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and Kosher salt. Cook on medium-high for 8 hours, or until the roast is cooked completely through.
  2. Carefully remove the roast from the crockpot and place it in a large casserole dish. Remove 1 cup of au jus from the crockpot and add it to the casserole dish. Using two forks, shred the chuck roast until it is in small, bite-sized pieces.
  3. Preheat your oven to broil.
  4. Butter each bread slice and place it on a large cookie sheet. Broil for 2 minutes, or until the bread is toasted. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Remove the toasted bread from the oven and top it evenly with shredded roast beef, jalapeños, and mozzarella cheese. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  6. Remove from oven and serve while warm. If desired, drizzle au jus over the sandwiches before serving.

Notes

  • For richer flavor, use beef broth instead of water.
  • To prevent soggy sandwiches, toast the bread thoroughly before adding the cheese and beef.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
