Juicy Beef Sandwiches

These sandwiches are quick & easy to make but taste like they come from a fancy sandwich shoppe.  I've made these in many different ways over the past few years and it's reached the place where we are happy & satisfied with the outcome!!  They are very yummy - - sure to please!!! 

Juicy Beef Sandwiches

3 pkgs of thin sliced sandwich roast beef (7-8oz per pkg)
1 can of Beef consomme
1 can of French Onion Soup
1 beef bullion cube
1/2 large white onion, sliced into slivers
Sour dough sandwich buns/rolls (makes about 6-8 sandwiches)
Pinches of your favorite white shredded cheese (I like Mozerella)
butter, parsley (dried), S&P, chili powder

**Additional options: Sliced mushrooms, sliced green beens, slivers of green peppers

1) Turn your oven on to the Broil setting....   Then in a large pan (I use my wok, I love my wok!!) combine the 2 cans of soup, 1 can of water, beef cube & a few pinches of dried parsley and heat on medium.  While that's working - slice up the onion & add into the pan... heat until boiling.  (This is where you'd add your other veggies, if you have it or want it.)  

2) Once boiling & the onions are tender: separate the sliced roast beef & put all the meat into the same pan with the soup.  Make sure you get it all mixed together and fully submerge the meat in the soup mixture.  Lower the heat to a little under medium and let 'simmer'.  

3) Meanwhile:  Open your buns/rolls & spread a thin layer of butter on each side & place open faced on an oven safe pan (a small pizza pan is what I use).  Lay down an even layer of shredded cheese on both sides of the buns, then lightly sprinkle parsley, garlic powder and chili powder on top of the cheese & place it under the broiler.  (This only takes a few minutes... maybe 4 or 5, before the cheese looks melted and bread gets a bit crunchy... yum.)

4) Once browned and melted take the buns out & top the bottoms with as little or as much of the roast beef as you like.  Put some reserved soup that your beef was cooking in into a small glass dipping dish for your sandwich.... place the lid on your sandwich and you're done!!  Enjoy!!
