French Dip Sandwiches

(first of all - SORRY for the post with no pic - Hate That!)

I was searching for dinner inspirations on my trusty FB page - and Lynn's nephew's wife (whew!) contributed this tasty little tidbit:

Recipe (no adapting, here!):
(shared by Lindsey Pickle-Morton ‎)
1 roast
2 cans french onion soup
2 cans beef consomme

All goes in the crock pot low 5-6 hrs, high 3-4hrs. Slice meat and serve on torpedo rolls. (I like the really dry ones) and use the juices as a jus (sp?) Best french dip EVER and super easy! (Ok, I lied - I did adapt a LITTLE bit....served it w/o au jus (my kids aren't into soggy bread...!), and added cheese slices - oh, the 2nd time I made it they added some BBQ sauce to their buns, was great!)

Approval Level:
The first time I made this, I wasn't home for dinner (yeah, was SUPER nice of me to make dinner for those left behind!) - but I gotta tell ya, the house smelled SO good all day!  The boys all said they liked it, Lynn said it was a little dry/chewy.......but I thought, anything that smells THAT good......so I tried it again!  (The fact that I have roasts in the freezer and this only requires FOUR CANS for the remaining ingredients TOTALLY encouraged me!)  So Glad I did!  It was totally moist and tender and delicious - last time must have been the ROAST'S fault!  Serve these sandwiches up, you'll be glad you did!
