A beautiful pile of moist beef sitting atop a slice of homemade white bread dripping with au jus. — The Perfect Hot Beef Sandwich

So I thawed a chuck roast to make my moms roast beef recipe in the crock pot but realized I did not have cream of mushroom soup or any Lipton onion soup mix. Into Quarantine Kitchen we go! I was really craving that hot roast beef opened face sandwich so I went to the BBQ Cabinet and got out some of the Meat Revival: a Baptism in Smoke Beef Injection and Marinade and mixed it up per the recipe on the package to use as an au jus/liquid in the Instant Pot. What came of this was maybe one of the best, easiest to make roast beef sandwiches I’ve ever made. Sometimes, an ingredient developed for something specific works amazing on an improvise. The Meat Revival Beef Injection and Marinade is just that ingredient! Here’s the full recipe!
