Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Roast beef (thinly sliced)
- 4 slices Provolone cheese (or cheese of choice)
- 2 rolls French bread or hoagie rolls
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Prepared horseradish (optional)
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Slice the French bread or hoagie rolls in half lengthwise, leaving them attached on one side if possible to make filling easier.
Spread 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter evenly over the cut side of each roll and lightly toast on the skillet until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, prepared horseradish (if using), salt, and black pepper. Spread the mixture evenly across the toasted sides of the bread.
Layer 4 ounces of thinly sliced roast beef on the bottom half of each roll.
Top the roast beef with 2 slices of Provolone cheese (or your preferred cheese).
Close the sandwich with the top half of the bread and press down gently.
Return the sandwiches to the skillet over medium-low heat. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil to help the cheese melt evenly. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, flipping carefully halfway through, until the cheese has melted and the bread is crispy.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half for easier handling, and serve immediately.
