Chicago Italian Beef Sandwiches

[Vermin999]

Beef rump roast seasoned with some 21 Salute no salt seasoning from Trader Joes and cooked to an internal of 120*F. The bacon went into some Mac and Cheese.

Roast sliced real thin on a meat slicer.

Some of the slices in some gravy.

My sandwich with some hot giadiniera with a side of mac and blue cheese with bacon. Both were really good!!

What John said!


Sent using smoke signals because I'm a cheap bastard!

 

[LarryWolfe]

Oh yeah, very nice John!

That looks amazing...how long did it take you to get to 120?

 

[Griff]

Care to share the gravy and giadiniera recipes?

 

[Vermin999]

The roast took somewhere between 1.5 hours and 2 hours to reach 120*F

The Giadiniera came out of a jar.

And here is what I put in the gravy. I didn't measure anything so add to your taste


Beef stock, oregano, basil, thyme, 2 bay leaves, red pepper flakes, and Worcestershire sauce to a simmer then added a carrot and a stalk of celery. After 30 minutes I removed the carrot, celery and bay leaves and added some thinly sliced onion and cooked for another 5 minutes. Then added some of the roast beef and waited another 15 minutes before I put the beef on the sandwiches. I kept added water also as the pot simmered down.

That is one of my all time favorite sandwiches, you got it spot on to the last detail with the hot Giadiniera. Looks fantastic only thing I do differant is buzz the Giadiniera in the food processor, makes it like a relish and alittle easier to eat

 

[Captain Morgan]

good call on using the food processor Jimmy, gonna give that a try

Excellent sandwich! I am going to put bacon in the next batch of mac & cheese here. Personally I feel I have already eaten my share of mac and cheese but my kids will not move on
