For 8 stuffed biscuits:

1 cup (100 g) shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup (60 g) cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp Dijon or yellow mustard (optional)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tbsp melted butter
1 tsp dried parsley (for garnish)
For the Au Jus Dip:
1 packet (about 1 oz / 28 g) au jus gravy mix
3 cups (720 ml) water (or beef broth if preferred)
Equipment Needed
Baking sheet or casserole dish
Mixing bowl
Small saucepan (for au jus)
Pastry brush
Oven
Instructions
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a casserole dish.
Prepare the Filling:
In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add Beef and Cheese:
Chop or tear the roast beef into bite-sized pieces. Add to the cream cheese mixture along with the shredded provolone (or mozzarella). Stir until evenly coated.
Assemble the Biscuits:
Separate the biscuits and flatten each one gently into a 4–5 inch circle.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center of each biscuit.
Fold the edges over the filling and pinch to seal tightly. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush and Bake:
Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with dried parsley.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Prepare the Au Jus:
While biscuits bake, prepare the au jus dip according to package directions (mix with water or broth and simmer until hot).
Serve:
Serve the warm biscuits alongside small bowls of au jus for dipping.
Pro Tips
Don’t overfill the biscuits or they may pop open while baking.
Add a slice of caramelized onion or sautéed mushrooms inside for a gourmet twist.
For extra flavor, sprinkle a little garlic salt on top before baking.
You can use leftover roast beef or even shredded rotisserie beef/pot roast.
