Method

Beef and Onions Preparation

  1. 1

    Sear the Beef

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef roast with salt and black pepper. Sear the roast for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned.

  2. 2

    Cook the Onions

    Slice the onions thinly. In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed and sauté the onions over medium heat until they are caramelized, about 15 minutes. Add minced garlic in the last 2 minutes of cooking.

  3. 3

    Slow Cook the Beef

    Transfer the seared beef roast to a slow cooker. Add the caramelized onions, garlic, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shredded.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare the Baguette

    Once the beef is cooked, slice the baguettes in half lengthwise. Toast them lightly if desired.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Shred the beef and place a generous portion on the bottom half of each baguette. Top with slices of Swiss cheese.

Serve

  1. 6

    Prepare Au Jus

    Strain the reserved cooking liquid from the slow cooker into a pot to serve as au jus.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Close the sandwiches and serve them warm with the au jus on the side for dipping.
