→ Main Components
01 -
1 box frozen garlic Texas Toast (8 slices)
02 -
1 packet au jus gravy mix
03 -
3 cups cold water

1 pound sliced deli roast beef
05 -
8 slices provolone cheese

Dried parsley for garnish (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a sheet tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
02 -
Cook the frozen garlic Texas Toast according to package directions, typically 8 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
03 -
While the toast bakes, prepare the au jus gravy mix with 3 cups cold water according to package directions. Keep warm on the stovetop.
04 -
Once the au jus is ready, add the sliced deli roast beef to the warm au jus to heat through and absorb the flavors.
05 -
Place the baked Texas Toast on your prepared sheet tray. Top each slice with half a slice of provolone cheese as the base layer.
06 -
Using tongs, remove the warmed roast beef from the au jus and divide evenly among all 8 pieces of toast, piling it generously on top.
07 -
Place the remaining half slices of provolone cheese on top of the roast beef to create a melty cheese layer.
08 -
Return to the oven for 3-5 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and slightly golden around the edges.
09 -
Remove from oven and sprinkle with dried parsley if desired. Serve immediately with small bowls of the warm au jus for dipping.
