Ingredients

Scale

Biscuits and Filling

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8 slices deli roast beef
  • 8 slices provolone cheese

Butter Glaze

  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Au Jus

  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking dish and set it aside to ensure the biscuits do not stick.
  2. Shape Biscuits: Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough into 8 equal biscuits. Gently flatten each biscuit with your hands to create a base for the filling.
  3. Add Filling: Place one slice of deli roast beef and one slice of provolone cheese on top of each flattened biscuit, distributing the filling evenly.
  4. Seal Biscuits: Carefully fold the edges of each biscuit dough over the roast beef and cheese, pinching the edges securely to form sealed balls to prevent leaks during baking.
  5. Arrange Biscuits: Place each filled biscuit seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, spaced evenly to allow for expansion during baking.
  6. Make Butter Glaze: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
  7. Glaze Biscuits: Generously brush the butter mixture over the tops of the sealed biscuits, ensuring full coverage to enhance flavor and browning.
  8. Bake Biscuits: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
  9. Prepare Au Jus: While the biscuits are baking, heat the beef broth in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through, ready for dipping.
  10. Serve: Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve the warm French dip biscuits with the heated beef broth on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Use good-quality deli roast beef and provolone cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure to pinch the biscuit dough edges tightly to keep the roast beef and cheese sealed inside during baking.
  • The au jus can be enhanced with a splash of Worcestershire sauce or beef bouillon for deeper flavor if desired.
  • Serve immediately for best taste and texture; leftover biscuits can be reheated but may be less crisp.
