Slow Cooker Roast Beef Sandwiches are a monthly dinner staple for busy nights.

Slow Cooker Roast Beef Sandwiches are a simple meal when you need something easy for dinner!

Sometimes there are recipes that I make for my family so often, I am shocked when I realize I’ve never shared them here on Dine & Dish. These Slow Cooker Roast Beef Sandwiches are one such recipe. You guys, we eat this open faced sandwiches all the time. Truly, we have them at least once a month, and in the 11 years I’ve been blogging I’ve never shared the recipe with you. I’m not sure why that is, but today is the day you’ll find out all about our favorite slow cooker roast beef sandwiches!

These simple slow cooker roast beef sandwiches will become a favorite to make for your family!

We are big lovers of making chuck roast in the slow cooker. Chuck roast is always something we have on hand in the freezer, mostly because our kids love it, it’s easy to cook, and the price is always right. I used to only do roast beef in the slow cooker with potatoes and carrots, but then I started getting more creative.

These slow cooker roast beef sandwiches are the result of wanting something new and fresh to do with a roast beef. As soon as I made them the very first time years and years ago, my kids started requesting them more and more. These open faced sandwiches have quickly become a favorite staple at meal time.

Slow Cooker Roast Beef Sandwiches are a great way to use up chuck roast and to try something new.

If you have a family of chuck roast lovers but are bored with the way you’ve been serving it, definitely give these slow cooker roast beef sandwiches a try. They very well may become a favorite dinner in your house as well! Enjoy!

Slow Cooker Roast Beef Sandwiches are a great dinner when you are looking for something simple and delicious your family will love.

If you are looking for a new slow cooker, I can’t say enough great things about this one that we own. We absolutely love it!

Tips for making the best slow cooker roast beef sandwiches

Start with a quality cut of meat. You’ll want to make sure whatever roast you use isn’t very fatty. The last thing you want when shredding the roast is to have to dig through the fat. In addition, boneless chuck roast is the best option for this recipe, however a bone-in cut of beef can also be used. Just make sure to remove the bone before shredding the meat.

Cooking this slow cooker roast beef on low to medium for a longer time makes it so fall apart tender. Avoid the temptation to cook your beef on high heat for a shorter amount of cooking time. Low and slow really does provide the best end result.

We like to top our roast beef sandwiches with jalapeño peppers, but you can go without or add toppings more suited to your taste buds. Some delicious options for topping your beef sandwiches would be grilled onions, roasted bell peppers, diced tomatoes or even chunky salsa. The best step in this recipe is the part where you place the sandwiches on a baking sheet under the broiler. No matter what you top your roast beef sandwiches with, make sure to put them under the broiler for just a couple quick minutes to really give your sandwich great flavor.

Now, on to this awesome slow cooker recipe! I hope you enjoy this family favorite as much as we do.

    Sounds like just the type of thing my husband would like. He love beef and jalapenos. I’m going to give this a whirl. Thanks for the fresh idea. I get stuck fixing the same things over and over if I don’t go looking for inspiration.

    I have a question about your slow cooker recommendation. I see a standard lid and a lid that has 2 openings. I’m confused. Does it come with 2 lids? Does the one pot have 2 separate compartments for cooking 2 different things in one pot? I went to your link you posted which took me to Amazon and I just can’t figure it out. Can you please help an old broad out?
    Thank you so much. I’m looking forward to coming here and today is my first time.

      Hi Caren –
      Thanks for visiting and welcome! So the slow cooker lid we have just comes with the one full lid. I noticed in the bottom of that amazon link there is a split lid, but we don’t have that one. The split lid one is under a different listing and is KitchenAid model KSC6222SS. I hope that helps!
      Thanks!

H is for...high!
.
It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.
.
I can’t wait until travel becomes a regular part of life again. I’ve missed it so much!

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!

E is for...Excitement!
.
There’s a lot of excitement in Kansas City as our beloved @chiefs head back to the Super Bowl this weekend! #runitback 🏈
.
It’s so strange because winning the super bowl last year was the last “normal” thing that happened before the pandemic hit. We went from a city full of excitement to shutting down and sheltering in place. Maybe when we win and bring the trophy home this year, it’ll be the start of something great. Let’s hope!
.
Who are you rooting for Sunday? Chiefs, Buccaneers or tacos? 😂

D is for... Dreary (and Dog)
February has always been my least favorite month. I have a special name for this month that may start with another not so nice F word...🤭.
.
In Kansas, the sun usually doesn't shine that often, it's cold, and just kind of gray and blah.
.
My indoor jungle makes me happy though...especially this space in my office. Houseplants almost makes me forget we’re in the “F” month 😂.
.
Also, my dog (my favorite d word) would not sit still for a picture when I had my tripod set up, but I finally caught her sitting on her bed and had to catch a picture with my phone. Swipe and you’ll see she is much overdue for a haircut.

C is for Coaching, Coffee and Crystals! Lots of C words today. My @rockyourhappy coaching practice has been the best thing. I am so lucky to be working with really great clients who are doing the hard work and making big changes in their lives. It’s been the perfect fit for me and I know it’s what I am meant to be doing. Coffee, of course, is my favorite C word and Crystals…my daughters got me into the energy powers of crystals and it’s been really fun to learn all about them.

B is for Books! Are you a big reader? I wasn’t really a reader growing up. Well, I take that back. In junior high I plowed through the Sweet Valley High series (anyone else?) 😊 And when I was in elementary school I would bust my butt to get to the highest level in the SRA Reading box before anyone else. But I wasn’t a kid who you’d find with their nose in a book, ever.
.

It wasn’t until I was an adult, and my kids began to sleep through the night, that I started reading for fun. Now, I read all the time and it’s one of my favorite pastimes. I love talking books with people and sharing recommendations. I really don’t watch TV, so books, especially right now, is my main form of entertainment.
.

This is why for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photography challenge, I knew that Books would be my B. It’s my favorite B word (beating out Bullet Journaling, Bread, Blankets, Be Happy, etc).

A is for Alone. I think one of the hardest things for me to get used to this past year is rarely being alone. My husband used to travel all the time. My school aged kids were in school all day while I worked. I’d even get several days a month in a hotel room by myself for my work travels. I like my alone time and it’s definitely something I miss.
.

I’m easily distracted so you will usually find me working in complete silence…maybe just the hum of my essential oil diffuser and the sound of my fingers on my keyboard. I need the quiet and treasure silence.
.

With that said, I’ve loved the extra time with my family - and we’ve all learned over the past several months how to give each other space and recognize when we need that space. As of today, my kids all are back to school full time in person 😢. Nick is still working from home and will be for the time being, but now the aloneness feels strange. I’m sure we’ll get used to this “new normal” yet again!
