Ingredients

  • 4 buns hoagies
  • 4 Tablespoons butter melted, salted or unsalted
  • 1 Tablespoon dry onion soup mix or au jus mix
  • 8 Slices provolone cheese cut in half
  • 12 Slices roast beef

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F or get your camp fire going.
  • Cut 4 pieces of aluminum, 12 inches wide.
  • Slice hoagies in half lengthwise. Set aside
  • In a small bowl mix the butter and dry onion soup mix. Mix until combined.
  • Butter the inside of the hoagies with butter/onion mixture.
  • Place 2 pieces of cheese on each side of the cut hoagie. So 2 full slices per hoagie.
  • Place 3 slices of corned beef in the middle.
  • Fold the hoagie and place it on the aluminum foil.
  • Close into a packet and place on the preheated grill.
  • Cook for 15 to 18 minutes or until the sandwich is warm and the cheese is melted.
  • Prepare the au jus while the sandwiches are cooking.

Notes

Add some extras: You might like to add some sauteed onions or mushrooms to the beef and cheese filling for a deluxe touch.
Make the butter mixture ahead: If you're camping you'll want to simplify everything, so prepare the butter mixture ahead and keep it in a small container, then you can butter the sandwiches and perhaps save some for a future meal too.
Use heavy duty aluminum foil: If you use cheap tin foil and it tears, your French dip sandwich making efforts will end in disaster, so stick with the good stuff! Instead, use heavy duty aluminum foil that will safely enclose all your ingredients and make this recipe a success.
