Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

1. In a bowl, mix the shredded or thinly sliced beef with the shredded cheese.
2. Set aside while you prep the biscuits.

Step 2: Assemble the Biscuits
3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
4. Separate each biscuit and gently flatten it out with your hands or a rolling pin.
5. Place about 2 tablespoons of the beef and cheese mixture in the center of each biscuit round.
6. Fold the dough around the filling, pinching the edges to seal tightly.
7. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or into muffin tin cups for easy shaping.

Step 3: Brush and Bake
8. Mix the melted butter with garlic powder and brush it over the tops of each stuffed biscuit.
9. Sprinkle with dried parsley if desired.
10. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
11. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Step 4: Make the Au Jus
12. While the biscuits bake, add beef broth, onion powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper to a small saucepan.
13. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5-7 minutes to develop flavor.
14. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
15. Pour into small bowls for dipping.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
16. Serve the warm biscuits with a generous side of au jus.
17. Pull them apart to see the cheesy, savory filling and dunk into the sauce for the ultimate bite.

Tips for Perfect Baked French Dip Biscuits
Seal the Edges Well – To prevent cheese from leaking during baking, make sure the biscuit edges are tightly sealed.
Use Flaky Biscuit Dough – It creates a better texture and holds the filling well.
Warm the Beef – Slightly warming the beef before stuffing helps it stay juicy and speeds up baking.
Customize the Cheese – Swiss, cheddar, or Monterey Jack are great alternatives to provolone.
Double Up – These freeze well, so make a double batch and save for another meal.

Serving Suggestions
Game Day Platter – Serve with pickles, chips, and dipping sauces.
Simple Side – Add a green salad or roasted veggies for a balanced meal.
Kid-Friendly Dinner – Great for little hands and picky eaters.
Party Favorite – Serve with toothpicks on a platter for easy grabbing.

How to Store & Reheat

Storing:

• Refrigerate: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: Freeze baked and cooled biscuits for up to 2 months. Wrap individually for best results.

Reheating:

• Oven: Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes until heated through.
• Microwave: Warm for 30-45 seconds, though the crust won’t be as crisp.
• Air Fryer: Crisp them up at 350°F for 3-4 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I make these ahead of time?
   Yes! Assemble the biscuits and refrigerate them uncooked for up to 24 hours. Bake when ready to serve.
2. What’s the best beef to use?
   Thinly sliced roast beef (leftovers work great) or shredded cooked beef from a roast are both delicious.
3. Can I use homemade biscuit dough?
   Absolutely. Just make sure the dough is firm enough to hold the filling and doesn’t spread too much while baking.
4. Can I add veggies inside?
   Sure! Sautéed onions, mushrooms, or bell peppers make great additions—just don’t overstuff.
5. Is the au jus necessary?
   It’s not required but highly recommended for that classic French dip flavor.
