Italian Beef
One of the things I really loved about Chicago was getting a great Italian Beef Sandwich. I haven't been there in many years but sometimes crave Italian Beef, so I decided I had to come up with a recipe. Make sure you have a sturdy bun, this is a sloppy sandwich, toast and melt some mozzarella cheese on it. I always add more pepperoncini to my sandwich.
