Savory French Dip Sandwiches bring classic comfort to your dinner table with tender roast beef and melted provolone nestled in crusty rolls. Hearty au jus sauce elevates this simple sandwich, promising a delicious meal you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Proteins:

  • 1 pound (454 grams) thinly sliced deli roast beef
  • 8 slices provolone cheese

Bread:

  • 4 hoagie rolls

Liquid and Seasonings:

  • 1 (10.5 ounces / 298 grams) can beef consommé
  • 1 cup (237 milliliters) water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven by heating to 350°F for optimal sandwich preparation.
  2. Carefully split hoagie rolls and position them on a clean baking sheet.
  3. Craft a savory broth by blending beef consommé and water in a medium saucepan, heating over medium-high temperature.
  4. Gently immerse roast beef into the simmering broth, allowing it to warm through for approximately 3 minutes.
  5. Carefully layer the heated roast beef onto the opened hoagie rolls, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Crown each sandwich with two slices of provolone cheese, creating a melty topping.
  7. Transfer the prepared sandwiches to the preheated oven and bake for 5 minutes until the cheese becomes perfectly melted and slightly bubbly.
  8. Serve the hot sandwiches alongside small bowls of warm broth, inviting diners to dip and enhance their culinary experience.

Notes

  • Choose lean, high-quality roast beef for maximum flavor and tenderness in your sandwich.
  • Toast the hoagie rolls before adding beef to enhance their crispness and prevent sogginess.
  • Customize the sandwich by adding caramelized onions or horseradish sauce for extra zest and depth.
  • Swap provolone with Swiss or cheddar cheese to create different flavor profiles and suit various taste preferences.
