• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

1 1/3 lbs leftover prime rib, thinly sliced

1 Tbsp butter

1 white onion

1/4 cup beef stock

salt and pepper, to taste

4 hoagie rolls

8 slices havarti cheese

leftover au jus (or two cups beefs stock simmered with two Tbsp flour)

horseradish sauce

Directions

AU JUS:

If you have leftover Au Jus, simple reheat it over medium high heat, reducing to low to keep warm. If you do not, simply make some by mixing together 2 Tbsp flour and 1/4 cup of beef drippings. Whisk together and continue up to 2 cups of beef stock 1/4 cup of at a time. Season with salt and black pepper and reduce slightly. Keep warm.

SAUTE ONIONS:

Melt butter in a large saute pan (affiliate). Add sliced onions and stir into the butter. After the onions begin to slighten, season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until unions turn a soft golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of beef stock and allow to absorb into onions. Saute 3 more minutes and reduce heat to low to keep warm.

TOAST BREAD:

Preheat oven broiler on high. Place hoagie buns open side up on a large baking sheet (affiliate). Place rolls in middle of oven and broil until inside of buns toasts to a golden brown. Watch closely as they can burn quickly if left unattended. Remove from oven and turn off broiler.

MAKE SANDWICH

Preheat oven to 400°. Split about 1/4 of thinly sliced beef between the top and bottom. On the top side, add a spoonful of sauteed onions. Place a slice of cheese on to of each. Place in preheated oven, open faced and toast about 5 minutes, or until cheese begins to brown.

FINISHING TOUCHES:

Remove sandwiches from oven. Spread horseradish sauce on one side of sandwich and squeeze together. Serve immediately with warm au jus alongside in a small dipping cup.
