  • Slowly whisk in the broth and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and keep warm until ready to serve.
  • For assembly, cut the crust in half and spread the outsides with melted butter. Lay 2-3 pieces of provolone on the bottom, followed by the roast beef, then 2-3 more slices of provolone. Top with the other half of the crust. 
  • Place the assembled sandwich on a hot panini press and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the cheese is melted and grill marks appear.
