Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Broth

  • 1 pound beef roast
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Vegetables and Aromatics

  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Bread and Cheese

  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • Cheese slices (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for roasting the beef.
  2. Season the Beef: Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
  3. Brown the Meat: Using a skillet on the stovetop, brown the beef roast on all sides; this step locks in juices and adds depth of flavor.
  4. Sauté Aromatics: Add minced garlic and sliced onion to the skillet; cook until the onion softens and becomes fragrant, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in the beef broth along with Worcestershire sauce into the skillet, creating a flavorful cooking liquid.
  6. Roast the Beef: Cover the skillet or transfer contents to an oven-safe dish, then roast the beef in the preheated oven for 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.
  7. Slice the Beef: Once cooked, thinly slice the beef for easy layering in sandwiches.
  8. Toast the Rolls: Toast the hoagie rolls until golden and slightly crisp to add texture to the sandwich.
  9. Assemble the Sandwiches: Layer the sliced beef and optional cheese onto the toasted rolls.
  10. Serve: Serve the sandwiches with the savory au jus on the side for dipping, completing the classic French Dip experience.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, let the beef rest after roasting before slicing to preserve juices.
  • Adding cheese slices like provolone or Swiss is optional but adds creamy texture.
  • Use fresh hoagie rolls for the best sandwich structure and taste.
  • Leftover au jus can be refrigerated and used as a flavorful broth for soups or stews.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
