Ingredients
Scale
- ½ pound (226 grams) deli roast beef, thinly sliced
- 6 slices provolone or Swiss cheese, cut in half
- 1 can (16.3 oz/462 g) refrigerated biscuits (Pillsbury Grands)
- 1 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 packet (1 oz/28 g) au jus gravy mix
- 3 cups water
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1 tsp dried parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preparation: Preheat oven to 375F (190C) with rack centered. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.
- Assembly: Flatten biscuit dough, placing roast beef and cheese slice in center of each circle. Carefully fold and seal edges, ensuring no filling escapes, positioning sealed packets seam-side down on prepared sheet.
- Seasoning: Lavishly brush biscuit tops with melted butter, then dust with garlic powder and chopped parsley to elevate flavor and visual appeal.
- Baking: Slide sheet into oven, transforming dough into golden, puffy parcels. Bake 12-15 minutes until exterior reaches rich, burnished brown and internal texture appears fully cooked.
- Au Jus Preparation: Whisk packaged au jus mix with water in saucepan, bringing to gentle simmer. Enhance with Worcestershire sauce for complex flavor profile. Maintain warm temperature for serving.
- Serving: Transfer biscuits to platter, accompanied by warm au jus in small dipping vessels, creating an interactive and enticing culinary experience.
Notes
- Prevent Leaks Carefully: Pinch biscuit dough seams meticulously to ensure beef and cheese stay sealed during baking, preventing messy filling spillage.
- Maximize Flavor Boost: Brush melted butter and sprinkle garlic powder generously to enhance taste and create a golden, appetizing exterior.
- Control Baking Time Precisely: Watch biscuits closely between 12-15 minutes; ovens vary, so look for rich golden brown color as the perfect doneness indicator.
- Customize Dietary Options: Substitute roast beef with turkey or plant-based protein for gluten-free or vegetarian variations, maintaining the recipe’s core technique and flavor profile.
