I have a recipe from Allrecipes that my family loved for crockpot french dip sandwiches. It used beer, beef broth and Lipton Onion Soup Mix.

I made it yesterday in the crockpot and subbed w/a bottle of Woodchuck draft cider, turkey broth, onions and Mrs. Dash. It just wasn't the same and the draft cider gave it a wierd taste. Does anyone have any ideas? Or a recipe that they like?

I even made a special batch of bread and made Carleigh hamburger buns so she could have the full effect. I am bummed it didn't turn out right..

I dont have any ideas what to use for the beer besides one of the gluten free ones, and I am having trouble finding them!

But for the beef broth just use a gluten free one, for instance, Swanson, I use them for everything and it comes out great.

For the soup mix, use Lipton onion soup mix, its the only mix that is actually gluten free. Just remember that none of the other mixes by Lipton are gluten free (that I know of)

I am sure someone else will answer to this post too, maybe they know a sub for the beer.

I hope this helps some and your recipe comes out great!!!!

Thanks, Tink.

I have looked at the boxed broths and thought they had MSG in them. It seemed to bother Carleigh. Same w/the Lipton Onion Soup Mix. :(

Wonder what it would do w/some wine?

yum.. some wine in there too.. that would be good. Yeah it seems almost anything comes with msg in it.. anything that is prepackaged that is. I do have a recipe for Onion Soup Mix if you are interested. Just let me know and I will post it for you. MSG is not an ingredient in it.

You got it! Here it is.. it comes from Gluten Free 101 by Carol Fenster

Onion Soup Mix

1/2 cup dried minced onions

1 tbspn sweet rice flour

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp bouillion powder (I just checked my Herb Ox, it doesnt say MSG on it)

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp sugar

1/4 tsp celery seed

1/4 tsp apple pectin powder

Combine ingredients in a screw top jar. Store in dark, dry place. Use in same proportions as commercial onion soup mixes. Makes about 1/3 cup.

I hope this helps and you can get your french dip. Let me know I would love to try it!

Oh, THANK YOU! That sounds great! Now to find Herb Ox and apple pectin powder. Do you get it at the HFS? I'm determined to make this work again and will definitely let you know.

The Herb Ox I get in the soup section in my regular supermarket and it is gluten free for sure.

The apple pectin I would look in any supermarket too where canning goods are sold, it sounds like something I would use with canning goods. If not someone must know where to get it! Let me know!

If you don't know it already, there is now a gluten-free beer! Haven't tried it, but it is by Ansheimer Busch, and it is called something like "Red Brick." Now with the Lipton Soup (which is gluten-free) and the beer you ought to be set! :P

We had hot roast beef sammys yesterday too...

I took two yellow onions and sliced them really thin. I placed them in the bottom of the crockpot. I poured over 1 qt of Pacific Beef Broth. I added salt and a bay leaf. I cooked it on high for 4 hours. THEN, I added two lbs of fresh roast beef lunch meat (my deli does it without any seasonings for me). Then I let the beef warm thru.

Everyone else had it on buns with provalone and horseradish. I had made sandwich buns out of a gluten-free Pantry French bread loaf. I enjoyed it a lot.

You might want to try "Redbridge" sorghum beer. Produced by Annehueser-Busch. To drink, it's sort of bitter but does have a beer taste that would most likely work well in your recipe.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After...

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated. This includes gluten-free bread. You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly. Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well. Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings. Nightshade vegetables...

      Thank you for responding and for prayers. So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine. You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison. I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of. Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including...

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back. My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time...

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.
