Instant Pot French Dip Sandwiches
Description
This recipe uses a 3-4 pound beef roast slow-cooked in the Instant Pot along with sliced onion, onion soup mix, garlic, and beef broth for an hour of pressure cooking. The long cooking time breaks down the connective tissues, resulting in meat that easily shreds. After cooking, the shredded beef is piled onto toasted hoagie rolls and topped with slices of provolone cheese which can be melted under a broiler.
The flavorful broth from the pot is kept for dipping the sandwiches, making the dish authentically satisfying. This approach simulates traditional French dip sandwiches but offers a much shorter preparation time thanks to the Instant Pot.
For a thicker dipping sauce, cornstarch mixed with water can be stirred into the broth and heated on the sauté setting until thickened. This adds body to the au jus without affecting the flavor balance.
Ingredients
- 3-4 lb beef roast
- ½ onion sliced
- 1 onion soup mix packaged
- 2 teaspoon garlic minced
- 4 cups beef broth
- 6 hoagie roll
- 12 lices provolone cheese
Instructions
- Place everything (except the rolls) in the Instant pot. Cover and set the valve to sealing.
- Set the pressure for 60 minutes.
- Do a quick release
- Shred the beef.
- Serve on toasted hoagie rolls. Top with provolone cheese.
- You can melt the cheese under a broiler.
- Serve with the juice and dip your french dip sandwiches into the broth.
Notes
- Use cornstarch mixed with water to thicken the cooking broth into a dipping sauce, heating it on sauté until desired thickness.
- Melt the provolone cheese under a broiler for a warm, gooey topping on the sandwiches.
