Method

Preparing the Au Jus

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir well.

  2. 2

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Let it simmer for 15-20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Preparing the Fries

  1. 3

    Cook the Fries

    Preheat the oven according to the instructions on the frozen crinkle cut fries package. Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, usually about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  2. 4

    Season the Fries

    Remove the fries from the oven and season with salt to taste while they are still hot.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Grill the Hoagie Rolls

    Spread butter on the outside of each hoagie roll. Heat a skillet over medium heat and grill the hoagie rolls until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  2. 6

    Add Roast Beef and Swiss Cheese

    Layer the sliced roast beef evenly on the inside of each hoagie roll. Top with Swiss cheese slices.

  3. 7

    Melt the Cheese

    Cover the skillet and let the sandwiches cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Sandwich and Fries

    Serve the grilled hoagie sandwiches hot with a side of crispy crinkle cut fries and a small bowl of au jus for dipping.
