Description

Hearty Cheesy Hot Beef Sandwiches bring comfort and bold flavors straight from classic American deli traditions. Melted cheese, tender beef, and perfectly toasted bread create a satisfying meal you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Meat:

  • 1 pound (1 lb) thinly sliced roast beef (deli-style or homemade)

Bread:

  • 4 hoagie rolls or sandwich buns

Cheese:

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese

Condiments and Seasonings:

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Optional Toppings:

  • Sauteed onions
  • Bell peppers
  • Pickles

Instructions

  1. Elevate the beef’s succulence by gently warming it in a fragrant bath of rich beef broth and tangy Worcestershire sauce over medium heat, allowing the meat to absorb the savory liquid for 3-4 minutes.
  2. Transform hoagie rolls into flavor-packed vessels by generously coating their interior with a potent garlic-infused butter mixture.
  3. Create a golden, crisp foundation by carefully toasting the prepared rolls in a preheated 375°F oven until they develop a delicate, light-brown hue.
  4. Enhance the sandwich’s complexity by spreading a harmonious blend of creamy mayonnaise and zesty Dijon mustard across the toasted bread surfaces.
  5. Carefully arrange the warmed, tender roast beef onto the prepared rolls, ensuring an even distribution of meat.
  6. Crown the beef with a luxurious blanket of melty, shredded cheese, promising a decadent mouthfeel.
  7. Return the assembled sandwiches to the oven, allowing the cheese to transform into a molten, golden layer that embraces the meat.
  8. Optional: Elevate the sandwich’s texture and flavor profile by garnishing with caramelized onions, vibrant bell peppers, or tangy pickles just before serving.
  9. Serve immediately while the sandwich remains piping hot, guaranteeing a sensational culinary experience.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium beef broth to control salt content and prevent the sandwich from becoming too salty.
  • Choose high-quality, thinly sliced roast beef for more tender and flavorful results.
  • Swap regular hoagie rolls with gluten-free alternatives to make the recipe suitable for gluten-sensitive diets.
  • Experiment with different cheese varieties like provolone, Swiss, or pepper jack for unique flavor profiles.
