French Dip

The title of this post was supposed to be Black Bean Chicken Chili...however as I began to type the recipe I realized I had left some ingredients out while cooking it! Guess I'll just have to make it again and post both versions later. :) As for tonight we had one of my fall back favorites. French Dips. It's not something last minute you can make as it is a crockpot recipe. However, it is a fix it and forget about it type meal. Great for school days where I know I won't get home until late and so dinner is already made when I get home!

French Dips

Ingredients:

4 lb chuck roast

1 T minced garlic

1 T dried rosemary

3 bay leaves

1 c soy sauce (I use low sodium)

6 c water

Directions:

Place roast in crockpot

Season with garlic, rosemary, bay leaves

Pour in soy sauce and water

Cook on low 6-10 hours

Place in hamburger buns (or your choice of bread) and top with cheese (I use swiss)

Dip sandwich in sauce left in pot

The longer this roast cooks, the more tender it becomes. It literally falls apart as I take it out of the crockpot.
