5 Ingredient Beef Dip Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1 beef rump roast 2 - 3 pounds
- 1 container beef stock 32 ounces
- 1 packet dried French onion soup mix 1 ounce packet
- 4 Hoagie rolls
- 4 slices provolone cheese
Instructions
- Put the beef rump roast in a slow cooker and pour in the beef stock and onion soup mix, stirring until no chunks of soup mix remain. Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 8 hours (see notes).
- To set up the sandwiches when the beef is done, cut the rolls in half and place one slice of cheese on each bottom bun. Set out little bowls on each plate and ladle one or two ladlefuls of the broth mixture from the slow cooker into the bowls.
- Carefully remove the roast from the slow cooker and slice on a cutting board. Place the meat on top of the cheese and cover with the top roll, then serve with a dipping bowl and enjoy.

Great question – I would recommend cooking the beef, broth, and french onion soup – Pressure Cook at High Pressure for 45 minutes + 20 minutes natural release. Then shred the meat and enjoy!
