Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF.
- In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, and onion soup mix. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Stir in the flour, cooking for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the beef broth and bouillon. Add the sherry and rosemary. Cook until slightly thickened.
- Cut the sub rolls in half lengthwise and spread the sour cream and onion mixture thickly over both sides. Arrange the rolls on a sheet pan.
- Add the roast beef to the hot au jus. You will have to do this in a few batches. Let sit for a few seconds and remove the beef from the pan, shaking off any excess liquid.
- Arrange the roast beef on the bottom half of the sub rolls. Top with Pineland Farms Swiss Cheese.
- Keep the sandwiches open-faced and place them in the oven. Cook just long enough to melt the cheese and crisp the bread.
