French Dip Sandwiches
Yield: eight servings
4 lbs beef rump roast
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 can beef broth
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried crushed rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Hard rolls or French bread
sliced or shredded Swiss or cheddar cheese (optional)
Place the roast in the slow cooker. Combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, broth, and spices; pour over the roast. Add water until the roast is almost covered, but not quite. Cook on low setting for 8 to 10 hours or until the meat is very tender. Remove the meat from the slow cooker and slice very thin or shred with a fork. Place meat on hard rolls or French bread and top with cheese if desired.
Reserve the broth, and serve in small bowls or cups with the sandwiches.
You can slice the beef before placing it in the slow cooker if you like. The addition of a sliced onion and sliced mushrooms makes a flavorful au jus.
