When I want to impress company, these satisfying sandwiches are my first pick for the menu. I serve them au jus, with the cooking juices in individual bowls for dipping. —Florence Robinson, Lenox, Iowa

Ingredients

  • 2 large onions, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1/4 cup butter, cubed
  • 1 beef rump roast or bottom round roast (3 to 4 pounds)
  • 5 cups water
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 envelope onion soup mix
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons browning sauce, optional
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 14 French rolls, split
  • 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, saute onions in butter until tender. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Cut roast in half; place over onions.
  2. In a large bowl, combine water, soy sauce, soup mix, browning sauce if desired, and garlic; pour over roast. Cover and cook on low until meat is tender, 7-9 hours.
  3. Remove roast with a slotted spoon and let stand for 15 minutes. Thinly slice meat across grain. Place on roll bottoms; sprinkle with Swiss cheese. Place on an ungreased baking sheet.
  4. Broil 3-4 in. from heat until cheese is melted, about 1 minute. Replace tops. Skim fat from cooking juices; strain and serve as a dipping sauce if desired.
