Source: Jan Taylor

1 (3 pound) fresh beef brisket (not corned beef)
1 (1.3 ounce) package onion soup mix
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed beef broth
8 mini baguettes or sandwich buns

Place beef in slow cooker. Mix soup mix (dry) and broth in small bowl; pour over beef.

Cover and cook on LOW heat setting 8 to 10 hours.

Skim fat from liquid. Remove beef from cooker; place on cutting board. Cut beef across grain into thin slices or shred beef. To serve, cut each baguette horizontally in half. Fill baguettes with beef; cut crosswise in half.

Serve with broth for dipping. Beef mixture will hold on low heat setting up to 2 hours; stir occasionally.

Makes 8 sandwiches (with 1/3 cup broth each).
