Prep
Slice the French roll open lengthwise. Slice the onion thinly and set aside. Keep the roast beef ready in loose slices.
2
Sauté
Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring, until soft and golden.
3
Simmer
Add the beef stock, garlic, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer over medium-low heat for 8 minutes until the liquid reduces by about a quarter.
4
Warm
Slide the roast beef into the jus and warm over low heat for 2 minutes until heated through, then lift out with tongs and strain the jus into a cup.
5
Toast
Place the split roll cut-side up under a grill on high for 1 to 2 minutes until the crust is golden and crisp.
6
Melt
Lay the provolone slice over the warm roast beef on the bottom roll half and return to the grill for 30 seconds until glossy.
7
Plate
Close the sandwich with the top roll half. Season the jus with salt and pepper. Set the sandwich on a plate beside the hot jus cup.
