Ingredients
Scale
Biscuits and Filling
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (16.3 oz)
- 8 slices deli roast beef
- 8 slices provolone cheese
Butter Topping
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Dipping Broth
- 1 cup beef broth
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the biscuits.
- Prepare Biscuits: Separate the biscuit dough into 8 individual biscuits and gently flatten each one with your hands or a rolling pin.
- Add Filling: Place one slice of deli roast beef and one slice of provolone cheese on each flattened biscuit.
- Seal Biscuits: Fold the edges of the biscuit dough over the filling, pinch the edges tightly to seal the filling inside, and form each into a ball.
- Arrange in Dish: Place the filled biscuits seam-side down into a greased baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Make Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper, mixing well.
- Brush Biscuits: Generously brush the butter mixture over the tops of each biscuit to infuse flavor and aid browning.
- Bake: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Warm Broth: While the biscuits bake, heat the beef broth in a saucepan over medium heat until warm and ready for serving.
- Serve: Serve the freshly baked biscuits warm accompanied by the warm beef broth for dipping, enhancing the rich and savory flavors.
Notes
- Use refrigerated biscuit dough for quick preparation; homemade biscuit dough can also be used for a fresher taste.
- Ensure the biscuit edges are well sealed to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
- Feel free to substitute provolone with other melting cheeses like mozzarella or Swiss for different flavor profiles.
- The beef broth is essential for dipping and complements the savory biscuits perfectly.
- For extra flavor, add a splash of au jus or beef gravy instead of plain beef broth.
- These biscuits are best served warm for optimal texture and taste.
