Ingredients
  

  • 12 connected rolls Sourdough Rolls or Hawaiian Rolls I prefer sourdough for its structural integrity, but the sweet rolls are a hit with the kids.
  • 1 pound Roast Beef Thinly sliced deli roast beef. Look for roast beef that isn't too heavily processed.
  • 8-10 slices Provolone Cheese This provides that classic French dip with cheese pull.
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter Melted. This will be the base of our golden glaze.
  • 1 packet or 2 cups Au Jus Mix or Beef Broth Rich broth for dipping.
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce To add that deep, umami bass note.
  • 1 tablespoon each Garlic Powder & Dried Onions To season the tops of the rolls.
  • 1 tablespoon Horseradish (Optional) For those who like easy French dip sliders with horseradish, a thin layer on the bottom bun changes everything.

                  Notes

                  In the kitchen, I believe in flexibility. While this is an easy French dip recipe, you can pivot based on your dietary needs or what is in your pantry. If you are following a specific lifestyle, consider these niche keywords for inspiration. For a low carb French dip sliders experience, you can swap the rolls for large portobello mushroom caps or utilize a keto French dip bread recipe. For a dairy free French dip sliders version, there are wonderful plant based provolone alternatives available now that melt surprisingly well. If you have the time, making a slow cooker French dip base by braising a chuck roast for eight hours results in meat that literally melts into the bread. On the other hand, an instant pot French dip can provide that several hour flavor in just about 60 minutes. If you are looking for a more intense flavor profile, try French dip sliders with gravy instead of the thin broth for a richer, more traditional comfort feel. If you enjoy a bit of spice, a fiery chicken ramen with creamy garlic sauce might be a different flavor profile, but adding red pepper flakes to your slider butter glaze can bridge that gap for spice lovers.
