Ingredients
 

  • 1 12 ounce package King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 pound roast beef thinly sliced
  • 6 slices Muenster cheese
  • 6 tablespoon butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoons everything but the bagel seasoning
  • 1 ounce packet au jus gravy mix divided
  • Optional: sautéed onions and mushroom (see note) and creamy horseradish sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Split the rolls in half and place the bottoms in a large round or 13"x9" dish. On the bottom slices, evenly top in this order: provolone cheese, roast beef, Muenster, (optional sautéed onions and mushrooms), then the bread tops. 
  • In a small bowl, whisk together butter, Worcestershire sauce, Everything Bagel seasoning, and 1 teaspoon of the gravy mix. Pour evenly on top of the sandwiches.
  • Cover with aluminum foil. Bake 25 minutes. Uncover and bake another 5-10, or until the top of the sandwiches are golden brown and cheese has melted.
  • While the sandwiches bake, in a small saucepan on medium-high heat, whisk together 2 cups water and the remaining au jus mix. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to simmer 5 minutes. 
  • Serve the sandwiches with the prepared au jus and creamy horseradish sauce on the side.

Recipe Tips and Variations

  • Homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning: This is easy to make and stores well in an airtight container up to 3 months. Here are the ingredients:
    • 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
    • 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
    • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
    • 1 tablespoon dried minced garlic
    • 1 tablespoon dried minced onion
    • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt (adjust to taste)
  • Au Jus Gravy Mix Options: You can use a regular or low-sodium packaged Au Jus mix. You can also make it from scratch. Here the ingredients:
    • 2 tablespoons regular or low-sodium beef bouillon granules or beef base
    • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
    • ½ teaspoon onion powder
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
    • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Meat Tips and Substitutes: Choose a high-quality deli meat for optimal satisfaction! Personally, I prefer Boar's Head Seasoned Filet of Roast Beef sliced at the deli counter. If you have leftover roast beef or prefer to make your beef from scratch, slice or chop it in easy-to-eat pieces. You can also make these with leftover sliced prime rib.
  • Cheese Options: Besides provolone and muenster cheese, you can also use American cheese, havarti, mozzarella, Swiss cheese, gouda, fontina, cheddar cheese, gruyere, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack cheeses. Gorgonzola and blue cheese can add a unique flavor profile as well.
  • Sautéed Veggies: Adding caramelized sweet onions and mushrooms adds volume, texture, and amazing flavors. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil or a pat of butter. Once melted, add sliced onions and mushrooms. Caramelizing takes time, usually around 15-20 minutes, stirring them occasionally. Add water to the pan as they cook if needed.
