Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • ½ cup prepared horseradish

  • 1 (12 count) package Hawaiian bread rolls, split

  • 12 slices deli roast beef

  • 12 slices deli-sliced Swiss cheese

  • ½ cup butter

  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard

  • 1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste

  • 2 teaspoons poppy seeds

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. Spread horseradish on the bottoms of the Hawaiian bread rolls. Top each with 1 slice roast beef and 1 slice Swiss cheese, then cover with top bread rolls. Place sandwiches in the prepared baking dish.

  3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, brown sugar, spicy mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder in butter until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour over sandwiches and sprinkle rolls with poppy seeds. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
