Notes
- Choose a well-marbled cut like chuck or rump so every bite is dripping with flavor.
- If you don't have au jus gravy mix, use a packet of French onion soup mix instead.
- You can slice the beef or shred it before serving. I find it easier to serve the sandwiches when I slice the meat.
- Pick something crusty like ciabatta instead of a soft sandwich roll. If all you have are soft rolls, toast them before adding the beef.
