Slow Cooker French Dip Sandwiches

Michaela, over at An Affair From The Heart and I have been friends for over 15 years now.  If you haven't visited her page, you should.  And if you haven't figured out by now what a great cook she is, then you've been missing out.  When we first met over scrapbooking, it didn't take us long to figure out we had many more things in common, cooking being one of them.  This is one of the first recipes she shared with me.  It takes just a few ingredients, and at the end of the day you have a super flavorful, super tender roast beef sandwich with its own yummy au jus sauce for dipping.  Add some sliced Provolone or Swiss cheese if you'd like.  The perfectly simple meal after a long hard day.  Michaela's family enjoys it.  My family enjoys it.  Your family will too.
