15 Reviews of French Dip

From: anji

No more "au jus" packets for me!! This was just as easy and tasted delicious. I was short on time, so I simmered all ingredients except the meat (I used deli roast beef) for about 10 minutes... and it was still fabulous. This is my new favorite sandwich.

    I used deli sliced roast beef for my sandwiches and added about 2 cups of beef broth to this mix. The result was an excellently flavored sandwich. This was quick and easy and perfect for a busy night. Next time, I will toast my rolls before adding the meat.

    I used leftover prime rib roast and followed recipe exactly. Better than restaurant french dip sandwiches. Wonderful flavor. This one is a keeper.

    WOW, this was really good. I used just regualr shaved steak because it was what we had. The flavoring was wonderful....Everyone enjoyed it. I did add 2 TBSP of cornstarch to the broth after I took the meat out to make it a little thicker (we like gravy) very good and will make again

    I made this on 8/11/07,and am very sorry it wasn't rated and reviewed until now.For the roast I used leftovers from Slow Cooked Tender Italian Beef,and I think it worked just fine for this dish.My SO and I both thought that there wasn't enough of a beefy taste to the au jus sauce.I'm not sure if I'll make this again.But,thank you for taking the time to post this recipe."Keep Smiling "

    Before leaving for a weeks vacation at Christmas time, I froze a leftover venison roast that I had cooked in the crockpot. I was at a loss as to how to finish it up this past weekend until I ran across your wonderful recipe! I served this roast on buttered and toasted multi-grain hard rolls with grilled onions and broiled provolone cheese on top. We then dipped them into the awesome au jus. A keeper!

    I made this a while back. I served it with deli roast beef and threw a couple pieces in the au jus, so I probably didn't get the same effect, but it was still a delicious recipe and I loved the herbs in the au jus dip as well as the flavor the soy gave it! Yum!

    This is a wonderful French Dip recipe! I used to always use the little packets to make the au jus! This tasted so much better! I will definitely use this recipe again!! I did add a handful of chopped onions to the au jus, to give it more texture, and also a can of beef broth. It tasted wonderful! Also, if you dont have a leftover roast, use deli meat! It adds a lot to the sandwich if you add some swiss cheese and mayo and toast it! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

    This was deeeelish! I made a double batch of jus and when I wanted something warm and filling, I just popped some in the microwave, toasted up some bread, and dunked away, no sandwich required. The restaurant I frequent charges 8.99 for a foot long sandwich. Now, I can make one for less than half that and I know what's going into the jus! YUMMY..just YUMMY!
