Itialian Beef

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
well i finally took the time to take photos. but i made some itialian beef sandwitches. with a little help from a few people. i will forget some so i will only mention one. see this started for me a few years ago when i wandered into a place called chicago delights. it is behind the "big "chicken" on cobb parkway in marrietta georgia. well i tried a itialian beef sandwitch and fell in love. well the one thing i could not get right was giardinera. i made a couple batches. and coulld not get it right. well i asked questions about it and got to talking to "The Dirty Burger". well time passed i forgot about it. so this past christmas i got a email requesting my address. so i sent it to him and a few days later i got 4 bottles from rubino's. along with some assorted rubs. well i sent him a thank you email and told him i was going to try to make beefs for the supper bowl. as it got closer it was begining to look like pittsburgh and chicago may end up in the super bowl together so i had to make them this weekend. so the first thing i did was talk to the deli manager at my local publix. they made me the chicago style rolls but they made them as big as a regular hoagie ;) i also bught the top round (i think it was a top round). anyway i seasoned the hunk o beef and vacume sealed it for two days. then i dropped it on to the egg

    I'm glad your beefs turned out better than the game. Here's hoping those Stillers humiliate the Packers.

    It looks amazing. I was wondering which of the 2 you preferred - the regular giardineria or the relish style?

    well i mixed them together. i used the hot relish style and the mild regular grind...

    and i thought the rubs worked really well. i added some coriander to the beef just cause i like it. but the rest was your rub... thanks again for your kindness ;)

    There should be a photo blocking option on here for when you haven't had dinner yet :P

    The sandwich makes me ready to eat but dinner is about 1 hour away. Nicely done. I like the blend of two giardiniera.

    We will be doing better when the weather warms up and the grass starts growing again. B) Thanks for the heads up on the slicer. :)

    Here is to you and your family. ;)

    It looks great, Bente. Good idea talking to the bakery about making the hard rolls into the hoagie shape. Wish I had thought of that. I used the soft hoagie roll and it's just not the same.
