The Essential Au Jus (Dipping Sauce)

Flavor Boosters: Onion soup mix (a classic shortcut), soy sauce, and garlic powder quickly transform the broth into a deeply savory, restaurant-style dipping jus. For another crowd-pleasing sandwich slider, try our BBQ Chicken Quesadillas – The Perfect Easy Dinner Idea.

How to Serve French Dip Sliders

Serve French Dip Sliders hot out of the oven. Pair them with a side of crispy fries or a fresh salad for a complete meal. Don’t forget the au jus for dipping – it adds an extra layer of deliciousness. These sliders are great for a casual dinner or as a crowd-pleasing appetizer at your next gathering.

How to Store French Dip Sliders

If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last for up to three days. To reheat, place them back in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through. For best results, you can also warm them in the microwave, but the oven keeps the buns nice and crispy.

Tips to Make French Dip Sliders

• Use fresh ingredients: Fresh slider buns and good quality roast beef will make a big difference in taste.
• Caramelize onions ahead of time: You can prepare the caramelized onions ahead of time for an easier cooking process.
• Add extra toppings: Feel free to add other toppings like jalapeños or sautéed mushrooms for added flavor.

Variation

You can easily customize these sliders! Swap out the roast beef for pulled pork, or use a different cheese like provolone or cheddar. If you prefer a vegetarian version, try using sautéed mushrooms or grilled veggies with Swiss cheese.

FAQs

1. Can I make these sliders ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the sliders ahead of time by assembling them and covering them until you’re ready to bake. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if they are cold from the fridge.

2. What can I serve with French Dip Sliders?

These sliders go well with crispy fries, potato chips, or fresh vegetable sticks. A side salad also makes a nice accompaniment.

3. Can I freeze French Dip Sliders?

Yes, you can freeze the assembled sliders before baking. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and foil. When ready to bake, just add a little time to the baking process to ensure they heat through properly.

4. My rolls got soggy. How can I prevent this?
 Ensure your roast beef isn’t overly wet (pat it dry if needed). Don’t let the assembled, un-baked sliders sit for too long before going in the oven, and make sure your oven is fully preheated.
