Northwoods Red Roast Beef Au Jus Sandwiches


Who said great food can’t be easy?
When Minnesota weather starts to get nice we all want to enjoy it and not have to spend hours in the kitchen. Here is a quick crock pot recipe we did the other day. Throw in the pot and forget!

Northwoods Red Roast Beef Au Jus Sandwiches
1-4 lb rump roast
1 can beer
1 pouch French onion soup mix
1 cup Northwoods Red
1 (8 ounce) can beef broth

Put all ingredients in a Crock Pot and cook on low 7 - 8 hours. Shred with a fork.

Onions
1 T butter
1 sliced Vidalia or Sweet Yellow onion
1 splash of Northwoods Red Crofut wine

In skillet, melt butter over medium high heat. Add onions and stir. Turn heat down to medium and stir until onions caramelize. Turn heat on high and deglaze with wine.

Serve Roast beef on toasted dinner roll, onions on top and side of Au Jus. Yum!!!
