- Place a slice of provolone on each biscuit (fold to fit if needed).
- Add a small handful of roast beef (2–3 tbsp) and a spoonful of sautéed onions.
- Fold the edges of the biscuit dough up and over the filling, pinching to seal.

💡 Tips & Variations
- Add caramelized onions for richer flavor (takes a bit longer but worth it).
- Spicy version: Add a dab of horseradish or spicy mustard inside each biscuit.
- Cheese swap: Try Swiss or Gruyère for a classic French dip flavor.
- Make ahead: Assemble up to 1 day ahead and refrigerate; bake just before serving.
- Air fryer version: Cook at 350°F for about 10–12 minutes (check halfway).
