Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to low and add the sliced roast beef to the saucepan, ensuring it is fully submerged in the broth. Simmer for 5 minutes to heat the beef and infuse it with flavor.
While the beef is heating, slice the French rolls in half lengthwise. Spread butter on the cut sides of each roll.
Place the rolls, buttered side up, on a baking sheet and toast them in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove the toasted rolls from the oven and place a slice of provolone cheese on the bottom half of each roll. Return to the oven for 1–2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Using tongs, remove the sliced beef from the saucepan and layer it onto the rolls, dividing it evenly among the sandwiches.
Pour the remaining broth mixture into small bowls or ramekins to serve as the au jus dipping sauce.
Cover the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls and serve immediately with the au jus on the side for dipping.
