Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 2 cups pot roast beef, slow-cooked and shredded
Cheeses
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
Vegetables and Aromatics
- 1 cup diced onions
- 1 cup diced bell peppers
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Liquids and Fats
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil or butter (for sautéing)
Seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the pot roast beef: Start with tender pot roast beef that’s already cooked and shredded. Use leftovers or prepare your pot roast in advance, ensuring it is juicy and pulled apart into bite-sized pieces for even distribution in the dip.
- Sauté the vegetables: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers and cook until softened and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes, enhancing their natural sweetness and creating a perfect veggie base.
- Mix the dip ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded beef, sautéed vegetables, cream cheese, shredded provolone, and mozzarella. Add minced garlic, beef broth, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir everything until creamy and well combined.
- Bake the dip: Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish or leave it in the oven-proof skillet. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden, showcasing the irresistible melted cheese texture.
- Serve: Once out of the oven, gently stir the dip to combine any separated liquids and serve immediately with your favorite dipping options such as bread, crackers, or veggies.
Notes
- You can prepare the pot roast beef ahead of time or use leftovers to save time.
- For extra flavor, add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of smoked paprika to the dip mixture.
- Use an oven-safe skillet to skip transferring to another dish.
- Serve warm for best texture and flavor.
- Great served with pita chips, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetable sticks.
