      I enjoyed this, but the beer taste was too overwhelming for me. Next time I think I will only use half a bottle.

      LOVE this recipe! I usually add a can of beef consomme, as well as sliced onions, minced garlic & bell peppers. Sometimes I add mushrooms, also. I wouldn't cut out the butter on the rolls... that's one of those little things that gives this sandwich an AWESOME taste. After toasting the rolls with butter, then adding the beef & veggies, I put provolone on top and put it under the broiler until the cheese is nice and bubbly. YUM!

      These were good. I too added on onion on the bottom of the crockpot, per another reviewer. I served these with a slice of swiss cheese and on hoagie rolls. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us.

      Yes, I agree this makes an easy delicious sandwitch. I have been making it for a long time. It is really nice when you are having out of town guests and don't know exactly when they are arriving. It keeps warm in the crockpot.

      I couldn't find condensed french onion soup, so substituted more beef broth and dry onion soup mix as another reviewer did. I also halved the recipe, but unfortunate circumstances forced me to leave the crockpot cooking for the full seven hours, which left the beef too dry. Despite that, we could tell that had the beef turned out properly, it would have been amazingly delicious. Will cook again, and probably add mushrooms or carrots.

      I made this a few months ago, forgot to rate it, but saw it in my Tried and True cookbook today. We really enjoyed this! Like BlueState, another reviewer, I added some onions and garlic. Also seasoned with Montreal Seasoning and fresh ground pepper. I had some home-made French Onion soup in the freezer that I used and that really put it over the top! So easy and so tasty. Thanks for posting.

      What a quick, tasty meal! I only had a 2 lb roast so I used the can of French Onion soup and half of a bottle of beer. When I prepare it with a 4 lb roast, I'll probably use 2 cans of onion soup as we really like that flavor. I skipped the butter on the rolls to cut down on the fat. I made the mistake of thinking the meat was supposed to be like a shredded meat filling, which is why I cut it the way I did. DH told me it was supposed to be thin slices (I've never had French Dip before!) so next time I'll make sure to cut it properly. :o) Thanks for sharing! We all enjoyed it so I know I'll be making it again.

      This was easy, tasty and fun. I love hot toasty sandwiches and this one fit my bill.

      My husband and I enjoyed this recipe although the meat still tasted like southern style roast. I'm not to big on roast anymore due to having it every sunday growing up but this was okay. The dipping sauce was what was so good. Next time I will use a different cut of meat but I will def. eat this again.

      My husband and I have been making this recipe for years...think we found it on another Web site. We add a sliced onion on the bottom of the crock pot and add salt, pepper and garlic (some times fresh, some times powdered). We also add swiss cheese to the sandwich. Thanks for posting!

      Made this for the first time today, and it will definitely be on our list again! We used Murphy's Irish Stout, but I would think any brand of stout would work well.

      This recipe is a favorite. I probably make it 7 or 8 times a year. I slice an onion and put it at the bottom of the slow cooker and add 7-8 pods of garlic. I season the roast with black pepper, cayenne pepper, and Tony Chachere's Herbs and Spices mix. I have found that the darker the beer, the better the flavor. Our favorite to use is Guiness. Also, the longer it cooks on really low heat, the better the flavor. Before we eat the sandwiches, I melt provolone cheese on top of the meat and spread some mayo on the other half of the bread. I actually have it cooking right now and can't wait to dig in.

      I make this all the time for company, and it's always a hit!!! I have also baked the roast in a covered roasting pan as well.... it doesn't take as long (about 3 hours)

      This was excellent!! I cannot find French onion soup at all so I used a package of onion soup mix and a bit more beef broth. Excellent flavour and absolutely easy to do. Who doesn't like beef dip??? Thanks Minkie

      This is really good! I didn't have beer, so I didn't put it in, I just added a can of beefbroth, but it was still amazingly good! I have made it twice since finding the recipe, and both times it was very good!

      We loved this recipe! I didn't realize that i hadn't reviewed it yet, but we've been making it pretty regular for about 6 months now. We usually have everything on hand (except sometimes the meat and/or rolls). I love that it's a crockpot recipe, i make it camping in the trailer, before work, or I leave a note for DH and he puts it in. So easy and really great flavor.
