Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 4 keto-friendly rolls
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter for toasting rolls

Instructions
 

  • Pat the beef chuck roast dry with paper towels and season it evenly with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the roast on all sides until it develops a deep brown crust, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Transfer the seared roast to a slow cooker. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, ensuring the meat is partially submerged.
  • Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, and dried rosemary over the roast. Add a bay leaf on top.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  • Once cooked, remove the beef from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Discard the bay leaf.
  • Strain the cooking liquid into a bowl and set it aside as the au jus dipping sauce.
  • Slice the keto-friendly rolls in half and spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and toast the rolls, cut side down, until golden brown and crisp.
  • Place a generous portion of shredded beef onto each toasted roll. Top with a slice of provolone cheese.
  • If desired, place the assembled sandwiches under a broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
  • Serve the Keto French Dip sandwiches hot, with a small bowl of the reserved au jus sauce for dipping.
