In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
Whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is golden and bubbly.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the gravy, whisking to combine.
Allow the gravy to simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Add the thinly sliced roast beef to the gravy. Reduce heat to low and let the beef gently warm through for 3-5 minutes.
While the roast beef is warming, butter each slice of bread on one side. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and toast the bread, buttered side down, until golden and slightly crisp. Work in batches if necessary.
To assemble the sandwiches, place one slice of toasted bread on a plate. Pile a generous portion of the roast beef and gravy on top. Top with another slice of the toasted bread.
Optional: Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately while hot, with extra gravy on the side if desired.
