  1. Scrolling through for crock-pot recipe today and discovered this one. YUP! have tried it and loved it! Came as close to French Onion Soup made at one of my favorite restaurants. It makes a big batch, smell wonderful cooking, and reheats well! Thanks for sharing it!
     
  2. I used boullion powder and it was delish! Thanks for Sharing : )
     
  3. I made this for the blizzard over the weekend, I did have to subsitute A! for the worcestershire sauce since I couldn't leave my house to go anywhere, so that could be the problem but it just seemed to be missing something. My husband loved it though.
     
  4. While making the soup I did not believe that it would taste like restaurant French onion soup. Given time to cook it surpassed my hopes! Loved it!! Changes- used boullion cubes(Mccormick beef stock-7 of them) made it a bit salty for some but I liked it Did not do the bread and cheese part and it was perfectly fine and rich without that.
     
  5. Everyone requests this recipe all of the time. I copied it for someone and lost my copy. I'm glad I found it again. Thanks, Michele

Tweaks

  1. I found the butter to be too much, I recommend cutting it back to 1/4 cup. Cut back on the beef broth and add a little white wine instead.
     
  2. Delicious! I didn't have the time to let it simmer in the crockpot but it was just as good cooked on the stove! I used half olive oil instead of all the butter and also added some thyme. Great recipe Wjking!
