Time 1h40m

Yield 8 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

2 tablespoons kosher salt
3 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 teaspoon ground thyme
1 small boneless rib loin roast (4 to 5 pounds)
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 large onions, halved and sliced
1 packet French onion soup mix
1 can beef consomme
1 can beef stock
2 tablespoons dry sherry
2 tablespoons Worcestershire
1 tablespoon soy sauce
8 crusty deli rolls
Butter, softened, for toasting
8 slices provolone cheese, optional

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
Combine the salt, 2 tablespoons of the pepper, the oregano and thyme and rub into the outside of the beef. Place the beef on a rack on a roasting pan and roast it in the oven until medium-rare, 25 to 30 minutes (use a meat thermometer and monitor it till it's medium-rare). Remove the meat from the oven and place on a cutting board to rest.
Place the roasting pan on the burner on medium-high heat. Add the garlic and sliced onions to the drippings, stirring around to cook until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Add the soup mix.
Pour in the consomme, stock, 1 cup water, the sherry, Worcestershire, soy sauce and the remaining 1 tablespoon pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour. Pour through a fine mesh strainer and keep warm.
Slice the rested beef very, very thinly.
Split the rolls and spread with butter. Then grill the rolls on a griddle or in a skillet until golden brown and crisp.
To build the sandwiches, pile sliced meat on the bottom half, dip the sliced beef quickly into the jus before putting on the roll, then top with the top half of the roll. Serve with little dishes of au jus.
Melt provolone on top if desired.

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 (10.5 ounce) can beef consomme
1 cup water
1 pound thinly sliced deli roast beef
8 slices provolone cheese
4 hoagie rolls, split lengthwise

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Open the hoagie rolls and lay out on a baking sheet.
Heat beef consomme and water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat to make a rich beef broth. Place the roast beef in the broth and warm for 3 minutes. Arrange the meat on the hoagie rolls and top each roll with 2 slices of provolone.
Bake the sandwiches in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese just begins to melt. Serve the sandwiches with small bowls of the warm broth for dipping.

Tips:

Use high-quality bread: A sturdy bread, such as a French baguette or a sourdough loaf, will hold up well to the dipping process and won't get soggy.
Slice the bread thinly: This will help the bread to absorb the au jus more easily.
Toast the bread: Toasting the bread will give it a crispy exterior and help to prevent it from getting soggy.
Roast the beef: Roasting the beef will give it a rich, flavorful crust and a tender interior.
Make the au jus from scratch: Using a homemade au jus will give your sandwiches a more flavorful and authentic taste.
Use a variety of cheeses: Using a combination of cheeses, such as Swiss, cheddar, and provolone, will give your sandwiches a more complex flavor.
Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to the sandwiches and helps to keep the bread from getting soggy.
Serve the sandwiches hot and fresh: French dip sandwiches are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

French dip sandwiches are a classic comfort food that is perfect for a casual get-together or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious French dip sandwiches that will be sure to impress your family and friends.
