Best 4 Italian Style Beef Sandwiches Recipes

CHICAGO-STYLE ITALIAN BEEF SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place roast on a rack, in an open roasting pan, I use an 9" X 13" (230mm x 330mm) baking pan with the rack in it. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees (165 C), allowing 25 minutes per pound (55 min per kilo) , roast will be rare.
• Cool, and slice very thin, I use an electric slicer to do this. To the drippings in the pan, add the boiling water, bouillon cubes or granules, (1 bouillon cube for each cup of boiling water used). Add marjoram, thyme, oregano, hot pepper sauce, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, garlic cloves, and chopped green pepper. Simmer for 15 minutes. Add the thinly sliced beef and cover. Marinate in gravy in refrigerator overnight.
• Next day, heat thoroughly, and serve warm on the French bread, along with a crisp, green salad and plenty of napkins!
• Note: Our family loves the gravy so much that I usually double the gravy recipe so there is plenty to dip the beef sandwich into. We also like to put a lot of gravy on the bread before adding the meat. Sometimes we add barbecue sauce to the sandwich before eating it, for a different flavor, not a lot, just a touch, about 1 Tablespoon or less to taste.

10 MINUTE ITALIAN BEEF SANDWICHES! (CHICAGO STYLE)

Steps:

• 1. Make the veggies and sauce first by putting the onions in the sauce pan with the quart of water. Boil while you are cutting the bell peppers. Add the peppers. After about 5 minutes, add remaing ingredients to make the gravy. (I usually put all the gravy mixes into a bowl and add enough water to thin it out and make it smooth before adding to veggies and water). When gravy is desired consistancy (you can add more water if needed), add the deli beef one slice at a time, pinched in the middle so it isn't going into the pan flat, but tented a bit. Stir meat and veggies a bit and shut off the heat.
• 2. Cut a piece of the loaf of bread the length that you feel is appropriate per person. Slice in half to make a bun. Either dip the inside of the bun in the gravy or spoon it onto the bread... or ... (don't for a less messy sandwich). Pile on some sliced beef and veggies. Dinner is served!
