Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Heat to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray lightly with non-stick spray.
- Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and onion until browned. Season with salt and pepper and drain excess grease.
- Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the French bread dough into a 12×18-inch rectangle.
- Spread the Condiments: Evenly coat the dough with ketchup and mustard, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Add the Fillings: Sprinkle the cooked beef, bacon, and chopped pickles across the dough.
- Layer the Cheese: Place the American cheese slices in a single layer.
- Roll It Up: Starting from a long edge, roll the dough into a log and pinch seams to seal. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
- Brush and Bake: Brush the top with beaten egg, sprinkle sesame seeds, and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool & Serve: Rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
