How To make Chicago Italian Beef Sandwiches
2 lb beef roast, leftover,
pre-roasted Roasting pan drippings 2 tb fresh oregano, finely
chopped OR 2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed 1 tb fresh sweet basil,
finely chopped OR 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed 1 ts whole black peppercorns
1/2 ts red pepper, ground (1/2
to 1) 1 tb fresh parsley, minced
Salt, to taste 3 cl garlic, minced
1 fresh green pepper seeded
and sl into 1/4 inch strips
Thinly slice cooked, roast beef and place in a Dutch oven (or put it back into the same pan in which the beef was roasted). Add enough water to cover. Add remaining ingredients and bring to simmer. After the beef has cooked for awhile, taste and adjust seasonings. Cook about 1 hour. Serve beef only on Italian bread with grilled green peppers and / or giardinera relish. As you serve dip the sandwich in your gravy.
NOTE: If you fix a large roast for dinner, take the leftovers, sliced thinly, and put your Italian Beef on the stove to cook, while you're cleaning up the kitchen. You can cook the Italian Beef in the same pan used for roasting. IF you make brown gravy for your roast beef, remove some of the drippings before you make the gravy and save them for the Italian Beef.

Chicago style italian beef sandwich ???? #shorts
Ingredients
- 2kg beef knuckle (I used dry-aged Carrara Wagyu knuckle but you definitely don't have to, I just needed to use it up)
- 2 tbsp grapeseed oil
- 1L beef stock
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp chilli flakes
- Salt and pepper
- 1 sub roll
- 2 heaped tbsp Giardiniera per roll
Method
1. Start by cleaning the beef up so there is no silver skin on the outside. Season generously with salt.
2. In a large fry pan over medium-high heat, get your grapeseed oil to smoking point and seal your beef on all sides.
3. Place your sealed beef in an oven-safe casserole dish and pour over the beef stock and the spices listed above.
4. Cover the top with parchment paper and place in 120°c oven for 1 hour or until the internal temperature of the beef reaches around 62°c.
5. Let the beef rest for 30 minutes in the hot liquid before removing and covering in clingfilm and placing in the fridge to cool.
6. Strain off the cooking liquid and put it in a pot to start reducing. Add 1 stock cube to boost the flavour and reduce the liquid until it just starts to taste too salty (you want it slightly salty so the sandwich is balanced).
7. Once the beef is completely cold, you can slice it - you want to slice it as thin as possible against the grain. If you don't have a deli slicer at home (come on andy, who does?) you can just use a knife but it's not going to be as thin as using a deli slicer.
8. To assemble the sandwich, slice your roll down the middle, add a very generous amount of the sliced beef to the hot liquid then quickly remove it and put it straight on the roll.
9. Place a couple of tbsp of Giardiniera on top and wrap it tightly.
10. Enjoy!
