Crock Pot French Dip Sandwiches

I made these recently and thought they were really good.  I adapted a recipe from allrecipes.com


French Dip Sandwiches:

Place a chuck roast in your crock pot and top with 1 can of Campbell's French Onion soup, 1 can of beef consomme, and half a can/bottle of beer (any kind works).  Sprinkle with some garlic salt and pepper (maybe 1/2 teaspoon each) and a tablespoon of worchestershire sauce.  Cook on low until fall apart tender.  Time will vary with your crockpot.  Mine took about 4 hours.  If it is still tough, keep cooking it!! The only mistake you can make is not cooking long enough.  When it is fall apart tender, shred the meat and discard any fat.  Take some of the juice from the crockpot and mix it with the meat until it is really moist.  Serve on buns with cheese of your choice (we like sharp cheddar) and we added banana peppers.  You could also add mushrooms while cooking or after, and you could thicken the sauce and serve with noodles instead of as a sandwich.
