What Are French Dip Biscuits?
French Dip Biscuits are a shortcut-inspired version of the classic French dip sandwich.
Instead of using a long French roll, we're wrapping the flavors inside refrigerated biscuit dough.
Each biscuit gets filled with thinly sliced roast beef and cheese before being baked until golden brown.
They're served with a simple warm dipping sauce made from beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and seasonings.
The result?
Soft, flaky biscuits with savory beef and melted cheese inside, plus a rich little cup of au jus on the side.
It's basically everything you love about a French dip, just in a much more fun package.
