Roast Beef Sandwich Recipes

THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
• When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
• Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
• Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.

THE ROAST BEEF SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat up a skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat, then add canola oil. Slice the baguette in half and toast in the skillet until lightly browned on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Remove the baguette to a cutting board. Add the roast beef to the same skillet, mounding in a shape similar to the baguette, then top with the Cheddar and add the au jus or beef stock. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it steam for 30 seconds. Meanwhile, add the Horseradish Creme Fraiche to one side of the baguette and the onion jam to the other. Remove the roast beef and melted cheese from the skillet with a spatula, and place on the bottom half of the baguette. Top the roast beef and Cheddar with the baby arugula, drizzle with the Apple Cider Gastrique and season with salt and pepper. Top the sandwich with the other half of the baguette, then slice the sandwich in half on the bias and enjoy!
• Mix together the creme fraiche, horseradish, Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, hot sauce and salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl. Keep refrigerated.
• Bring the cider, vinegar, sugar and apple peels and cores to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer for 30 minutes. Strain off the apple peels and cores, then bring the liquid to a boil. Whisk in the xanthan gum and simmer for 2 minutes, then cool down the liquid. We serve the Apple Cider Gastrique in a squeeze bottle at room temperature.

BUTCHER'S ROAST BEEF SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Coat the top round with the garlic, onion and liberal amounts of salt and pepper. Rub the seasoning into the meat and place on a roasting rack in a baking pan. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for at least 90 minutes before slicing.
• Put the ancho chiles and oil in a blender and blend on high speed until finely pureed. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a container. Gradually stir chile oil into the mayonnaise until the desired spice level is reached; the mayonnaise should be a bright neon orange.
• Cut the flatbread into twelve 8-by-9-inch rectangles and toast with beef tallow on a griddle over high heat until light golden brown. Slice each rectangle in half horizontally, then smear the cut-sides with mayonnaise.
• On baking sheets, make twelve stacks of sliced roast beef, caramelized onions and Swiss cheese. Run under the broiler until the cheese is melted and the meat is warm.
• Transfer the stacks to the flatbread bottoms and form sandwiches. Slice the sandwiches on a diagonal to plate.
• Mix together the yeast, sugar and 1 1/2 cups of warm water (just under 110 degrees F) in a large bowl and set aside until tripled in size.
• Place the yeast mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook and add the flour, oil, salt and 4 cups of tepid water. Mix on low speed until incorporated, then mix on medium speed for 10 minutes. Remove the hook but leave the dough in the mixer bowl. Let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the dough from the bowl and divide into 4 pieces. Place each piece on an oiled baking sheet and let rest for 30 minutes. Press the dough out to fill the baking sheets, then let rest for another 20 minutes. Press the dough again to fill out the baking sheets; let rest for 20 more minutes. Press the dough for the third time to fill out the baking sheets; let rest for 5 minutes.
• Bake for 18 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through.

HOT ROAST BEEF SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix together the mayo, mustard, poppy seeds, grated onion, horseradish mayo and Worcestershire. Taste the dressing and adjust the ingredients however you wish.
• To assemble, spread the dressing on the top and bottom buns. On the bottom bun, lay on some provolone, roast beef and American cheese, and place the top bun on top. Repeat with the next sandwich.
• Wrap each sandwich in a foil square, and either bake right away or keep in the fridge. To bake right away, put them on a baking sheet in the oven until the buns are slightly crusty and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. Great for a crowd!

ROAST BEEF SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the onion and 1 tablespoon of the salt. Set aside for 20 minutes. Rinse the onions with cold running water. Drain and squeeze to remove excess liquid. Combine the onions and the vinegar and marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, horseradish, zest, and 2 teaspoons salt. Season generously with pepper and hot sauce to taste. Refrigerate the horseradish sauce for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Slice the rolls in half lengthwise. Using your hands, shallowly scoop out the inside of each half. Transfer the rolls to a baking sheet and arrange scooped-side up. Toast the rolls under the broiler for about 1 minute. Slather the inside of the rolls with the horseradish sauce. On each of the roll bottoms, layer 2 tomato slices and season with salt and pepper to taste. Top the tomatoes with some of the roast beef overlapped into "ruffles" and season with salt and pepper. Top the meat with some of the onions and watercress and cover with the tops of the roll. Serve immediately.
