French Dip Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
A good grilled cheese is a classic sandwich that is loved by all, so is a french dip sandwich. Today, we are going to combine those tasty classics together into some amazing french dip grilled cheese sandwiches.
This sandwich is made on slices of french bread. I like to buy a loaf from my local Walmart. You will also need some good deli sliced beef along with some slices of provolone cheese.
Now you’ll need some butter to spread on that bread. The magic happens here for this sandwich. Regular old butter is converted into a delicious savory seasoned butter. Au jus mix, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and dried onion combine with the butter to make one magnificent buttery spread for these french dip grilled cheese sandwiches. Oh, and don’t forget to finish it all off with au jus for dipping these french dip grilled cheese sandwiches in!
