CROCK POT FRENCH DIP SANDWICHES

1 pkg. onion soup mix
1 10 oz. can of beef broth
1 can (use the can from the beef broth) of water
French rolls or sour dough bread
In a medium bowl whisk together the broth, water and soup mix. Trim any excess fat off meat. Add meat to crock pot, then pour broth and soup over it. Cook on low 6-8 hours. Use two forks to shred meat and remove excess fat. Use the broth from the crock pot for dippin’. Serves 4. Doubles nicely for a larger crowd.
