In a medium-sized pot, combine the beef broth, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to low and add the deli-style roast beef slices to the pot. Use tongs to gently separate the slices so they absorb the flavorful broth.
Simmer the roast beef in the broth for about 10-15 minutes, or until the meat is heated through and tender. Stir occasionally to ensure even flavor distribution.
Preheat your oven or broiler to low.
Slice the hoagie rolls or sub buns if not pre-sliced. Place them open-faced on a baking sheet.
Using tongs, layer the warm Italian beef onto the bottom half of each roll. Top the meat with a few banana pepper rings for added flavor and a slice of provolone cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the oven or under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is lightly toasted. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
Remove the sandwiches from the oven, close them up, and serve immediately. Enjoy with a side of chips, pickles, or a small salad for a complete meal.
