EASY BEEF FRENCH DIP WITH QUICK AU JUS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons butter; when the butter has melted, add the mushrooms and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms soften and start to caramelize, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet over medium heat, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Place the rolls cut-side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Liberally brush the rolls with the garlic butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toast in the oven until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside for assembling.
• To the pot with the mushrooms, add the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary. Bring the heat down to medium-low and simmer an additional minute. Turn the heat off, then add the roast beef to the pot, quickly removing when just warmed through, about 30 seconds.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread a layer of creamy horseradish, to taste, on both sides of the rolls. Add a layer of beef on the bottom halves of each roll, then top with a spoonful of mushrooms along with some of the jus. Top with giardiniera to taste. Transfer the remaining jus to dipping bowls and serve on the side.

FRENCH DIPPED SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Combine the chopped vegetables, garlic and thyme in a large roasting pan. Rub the dried herbs and spices all over the beef; season generously with salt and pepper. Place the beef fat-side up on the vegetables and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 130, about 45 minutes. Remove the meat from the pan, cover loosely with foil and set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
• While the meat is resting, put the roasting pan on the stove and cook the vegetables over high heat until they are browned but not burnt and the liquid has evaporated; pour off any excess fat. Add the beef broth to the pan, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits that cling to the bottom. Transfer the liquid and vegetables to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid reduces by half, about 30 minutes. Strain the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Trim any excess fat from the beef and thinly slice. Halve the rolls horizontally and warm in the oven. Dip the bottom of each roll in the sauce and top with some of the beef; dip the cut side of each roll top in the sauce and place on each sandwich. Serve with the hot mustard.
