French Dip Sandwiches - Easy Crock pot recipe

Who wants to be stuck inside on a lovely day in the summer?  This is an easy dinner that you can throw all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning and come home (or inside from playing all day) to a delicious dinner.  This is one of my son-in-law Jon's favorite all time recipes! To make this recipe you will need:
4 pounds rump roast (I have used whatever is on sale!)
Garlic Powder
1 (10.5 ounce) can beef broth
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed French onion soup
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
6 French rolls
2 tablespoons butter
1 clove garlic, minced
12 slices Pepper Jack cheese (optional)

1.)  Place the roast in the crock pot.  Sprinkle with garlic powder.  Add in the beef broth, the onion soup, and the bottle of beer.  Set the crock pot to low and cook for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
2.)  Take the meat out of the crock pot and shred the meat.  If your roast has fat, remove the fat and discard it.  Return the meat to the crock pot and cook for an additional half hour, while you prepare the rolls.
3.)  Preheat the oven to 350.  Combine the butter with the garlic.  Spread on the bread and broil for one minute.  Top the rolls with the cheese and return to the oven for the cheese to melt.  I cheated on this time and had purchased prepared garlic bread on sale, so I used that instead.
4.)  Pile the meat on the prepared rolls.  Place the au jus in bowls for dipping the sandwiches in.  Simply scrumptious!
