We had the best time with our friend Leighanne (@leighanne_yourhomebasedmom) yesterday! Her fabulous French Dip sandwich is amazing and our Kamut baguettes just put it over the top!!! We are definitely eating these again tomorrow for family dinner! xo Liz + Lizi
This Tri tip sandwich is sure to be a people pleaser. You can serve it two ways. The first is as a French dip sandwich by adding cheese and using the delicious juices leftover as a dipping sauce. I also like to add some chipotle mayo to mine. If you prefer a Philly Cheeses teak style sandwich just saute some peppers and onions and add to sandwich along with the cheese
Place meat in slow cooker. Add broth and Worcestershire sauce along with the herbs, salt, pepper and minced garlic into slow cooker, do not pour directly over the top of the tri tip and wash off the seasoning.
Cook on low for 6-7 hours or until meat is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
Remove meat from slow cooker and shred into large pieces.
Strain remaining liquid and use as a dip for sandwich
Spread the chipotle mayo on the toasted bread or bun, Top with shredded meat. Place cheese slice on top and place under broiler to melt.
If you prefer a Philly Cheesesteak style sandwich, sauté some onions and peppers and add to sandwich along with provolone cheese. (see note below)
Sautéed Peppers and Onion: Heat oil in pan over medium high heat, add sliced peppers and onion and sauté over medium high heat until soft.
Chipotle Mayo:
½ mayo cup
*Can also add some sour cream about 1 tablespoon!
1- 4 oz can diced green chiles mild
Combine all ingredients together and refrigerate until ready to use.
