Ingredients
Servings: 8 biscuits
-
1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
-
8 slices deli roast beef
-
8 slices provolone cheese
-
1/4 cup melted butter
-
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
-
1 cup beef broth (for au jus)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Flatten the Biscuits
Take each biscuit and gently flatten it with your hands or a rolling pin into a 4-inch circle.
Step 3: Fill with Goodness
Place a slice of roast beef and a slice of provolone cheese in the center of each biscuit. Fold and pinch the edges closedto seal them into a little pouch.
Step 4: Season and Bake
Place each filled biscuit seam-side down in the baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Brush the mixture generously over each biscuit.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 5: Prepare the Au Jus
While the biscuits are baking, heat the beef broth in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm. You can add a splash of Worcestershire or a pinch of garlic powder to enhance the flavor if you like.
How to Serve
These biscuits are deliciously satisfying on their own, but here are a few great pairing ideas to round out your meal:
-
🥗 Fresh Side Salad: A crisp green salad with vinaigrette adds contrast and balance.
