  • Italian Beef Sammies

    A few weeks ago I picked up some ribeye roasts at the packing house. While some have been excellent, every now and then I'll find some that are a little less in price due to grade. These make outstanding beef sandwiches!

    I done put myself in the mood for Italian Beef and just happened to have a roast in reserve for the occaision.

    Here's the recipe I'm using cept I'll be substituting using my tough ole ribeye.

    5 pound rump roast
    6 cloves of garlic chopped fine
    1 tsp dried oregano
    1 tsp of dried basil
    1 tsp of dried thyme
    1 onion slice
    1/4 cup of vegetable oil
    2 cups of beef broth
    1/2 cup of red wine
    1/2 cup of water
    1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
    1 tsp salt
    3 red and green bell peppers

    Mix garlic, oregano, basil, thyme, salt and pepper.
    Rub mixture into beef. Massage it thoroughly. Like you're on a date.
    Place the beef in a large plastic bag and add 1 cup of broth, wine and onion.
    Let marinate in the refrigerator for about 4 hours or overnight.
    Heat oven (I dont think so) to 350 degrees
    Place roast in a roasting pan and pour the marinade over the roast.
    Add the remaining broth and water.
    Roast with no lid for about 2 to 2 1/2 hours turning once within that time.
    Remove roast and let stand till cool. Reserve juice.
    Slice beef thin on a meat slicer. Place beef in juice.

    I'll be using pepperchinis, bell peppers and onions in my broth during roasting.

    MMMmmmm.. This is gonna be good!! I'll post up a Qview when it's done

              WeeeDoggies That sure is some tastey beef. Wanna peek?

              I roasted the ribeye by it's self after all to a med. rare 140ish deg.



              Chilled it for about an hour, sliced it,



              then re-introduced it into the marinade with some added pepperchinis (1/2 jar) and another onion. I also added 2 cups more broth.



              I been nibblin at it it a little to make sure its right but I think its just gonna take more testin to get it right.

              More to come.

                    I also like to put Giardiniera on mine.
                    Had a post on it on another board and, of course, it vanished.

                      I wished I had a decent Giardiniera to use. These were only pepperchinis but still add a great flavor. This was more of a spur of the moment idea. A market in Chicago carries a really good Giardiniera. I thought I had a couple of jars but I guess I used em already.

                      There is one thing I always use when roasting a ribeye now. Balsamic Glaze. Awsome stuff!

                              Al's #1 is very famous in Chi Town for their Giardiniera
                              This is supposed to be their recipe.

                              Al’s Giardiniera
                              (Al’s #1 Italian Beef, 1079 W Taylor St, Chicago)

                              1/2 red bell pepper
                              3 ribs celery
                              1 plum tomato
                              1 small garlic clove
                              2 Tbs capers, drained
                              1 tsp dried oregano
                              1/2 tsp dried red pepper flakes (or fresh sport pepper?)
                              2 Tbs freshly squeezed lemon juice
                              1/3 cup olive oil

                              1) Finely chop pepper, celery, and tomato; mince garlic.
                              2) Toss together veggies plus all other ingredients.
                              3) Cover and chill for 2 days; mix a few times each day.

                              Note: the recipe in Gourmet doesn’t say so but I think the capers are finely chopped also. Al’s giardiniera is somewhat unusual in that it’s chopped more finely (bell pepper, tomato) and sliced thinner (celery) than most. Here is one of Gary’s (G Wiv) excellent photographs that gives a clear idea what the genuine article looks like.

                              Perhaps add some Celery Salt.
