WOWZA!
I cannot wait to try that! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you SO much for sharing this recipe! It has become one of my family’s favorites! SO yummy!
This looks so yummy! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Adding these to my menu plan… Looks so good!! And will be totally worth splurging the WW points on that bun and cheese. 🙂 Happy Friday!
This seriously looks so yummy!!
Yum, this sounds really good. I am def. going to try this.
The pictures are great. I wish I could reach out and grab it! I just found your blog.
Looks great! I think my gang would like this and I think I can do this! 😉
I made these today & they were awesome!!!
Just put this in the pot for supper. My cousin (who is also a Pastor) is with us a few days, writing a book… I am so happy to have this recipe to make his stay even more “hospitable”.. He is family, but more importantly a Pastor and it does my heart good to be a blessing to God’s Man 🙂 Thanks for your blog.. love it so much.. so encouraging.. even for an “old” lady of 52 🙂
We had this for dinner last night–it was a big hit and SO yummy! Thanks for the idea!!
I’m trying this today! I couldn’t find a rump roast but I think what I got will turn out. I’m using some homemade onion soup mix seasoning and water in place of the canned soup!
hello! this sounds incredible and can’t wait to try it … have question about au jus … do you use juices from crock pot … or purchase? …just not sure of that part. thanks!
I cooked these and they were delicious!!!!! Thank you for this awesome recipe!
Ohhh man, these sound sooooo good! I had saved this recipe months back and never made it. I’m adding it to my menu plan for the month!! 🙂
I made this for my husband and I and this was DELICIOUS……planned on doing it for a football crowd of about 10 and was thinking a 6lb roast and just doubling everything. Any idea of how much longer it should cook for?
I have one frozen in my freezer, would it still work in the crock pot if placed in their frozen?
Autumn,
Yes, I have made roasts from the frozen state, you have to let them cook longer. 10-12 hrs and use an instant read thermometer to check temp for doneness.
There*
can you make this the day before and put in the crock pot but cook it the next morning? I do not have allot of time in the morning to do all the steps, so was thinking I would have it all done, and turn it on in the morning before I leave for work
Thank you
Great recipe! I followed the recipe to a T with the exception of the rump roast. I had top sirloin beef roast in the freezer and used that instead. I plan on making it again tonite for dinner and decided that I will try provolone cheese instead of swiss. I’m a cheese kind of girl; the more the merrier. Thanks for a quick and easy recipe!
just wanted to let you know that I recently cooked this recipe for my family and they loved it.. Thank you for sharing it. Have a Blessed 2014.
Did you use a pork roast or a beef roast?
Thank you for sharing! My family loved dinner tonight. Keep the recipes coming! 🙂
I just tried to print this, and all it did was use up all my ink printing the photos and skipped printing the recipe itself. Yes I hit the print friendly option. Maybe get that fixed?
I’m Sorry. I just noticed there was an option to take out the photos 🙁 No hard feelings? This was delicious btw. Thanks!
Such and easy and delicious recipe and my family loved it! Second time making it! Yum
This was the first time I’ve ever made a French dip sandwich. This was definitely a 5 star sandwich. Simple and absolutely delicious. I’m sorry I didn’t take a picture.
