Description

These French Dip Biscuits are a delightful twist on the classic sandwich, combining flaky baked biscuits filled with tender deli roast beef, provolone cheese, and a touch of creamy horseradish sauce. Served warm with a savory Au Jus gravy for dipping, this recipe makes for a perfect appetizer or hearty snack with irresistible flavors and textures.


Ingredients

Scale

Biscuit Sandwiches

  • 1 (16.3-oz) can refrigerated biscuits (8-count)
  • 1 lb thinly sliced deli roast beef
  • 2 Tbsp creamy horseradish sauce (or to taste)
  • 8 slices provolone cheese

Au Jus Gravy

  • 1 (1-oz) packet Au Jus Gravy mix


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Biscuit Layers: Separate each biscuit into two layers. Spread a small amount of creamy horseradish sauce evenly on each biscuit layer to add a tangy kick.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: On the bottom half of each biscuit, place one slice of provolone cheese followed by a portion of thinly sliced roast beef. Cover with the top biscuit layer and pinch the edges firmly to seal the sandwich completely.
  4. Bake Biscuits: Arrange the sealed biscuit sandwiches on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the biscuits turn golden brown and the cheese melts slightly inside.
  5. Prepare Au Jus: While the biscuits bake, prepare the Au Jus gravy according to the instructions on the packet, typically involving mixing the gravy powder with hot water and stirring until smooth.
  6. Serve: Serve the warm French Dip Biscuits immediately with the freshly prepared Au Jus gravy on the side for dipping, enhancing the savory experience of the sandwich.

Notes

  • Ensure you pinch biscuit edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
  • Use creamy horseradish sauce for a mild heat; adjust quantity according to your taste preference.
  • Substitute provolone cheese with other melting cheeses like Swiss or mozzarella if desired.
  • The Au Jus gravy packet can vary by brand; follow package instructions for best results.
  • These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh and warm to appreciate the flaky biscuit texture.
