How To Make italian drip beef sandwich
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
-
Step 2Season roast with salt and pepper.
-
Step 3In a large Dutch oven heat vegetable oil over medium high heat.
-
Step 4When hot sear roast on both sides, around 3 minutes per side.
-
Step 5Remove roast to a platter, set aside.
-
Step 6Add the beef broth, tomatoes with juice, pepperoncini with juice, and pimentos with oil/juice.
-
Step 7Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and stir with a wooden spoon. Make sure any brown bits on the bottom of the pot are released.
-
Step 8Turn off heat, add the roast, cover with some of the peppers, cover with a lid, place in oven-center rack.
-
Step 9Roast for 4 and 1/2 hours to 5 hours. You want this "fork tender" and easy to shred.
-
Step 10When done shred beef-keep it in the pot with all that lovely juice.
-
Step 11Mince and mash garlic, add to olive oil.
-
Step 12Cut Italian loaf of the horizontal, place on a cookie sheet.
-
Step 13Evenly spread olive oil/garlic blend on each side.
-
Step 14Evenly sprinkle parmesan cheese on each side.
-
Step 15Place under broiler, turn on and watch carefully. You want your cheese "just" toasted.
-
Step 16When done remove bread.
-
Step 17Using a slotted spoon remove meat mixture and layer onto bottom side ofhot bread, however much you want.
-
Step 18Cover hot meat with sliced smoked provolone.
-
Step 19Top with the other half of the bread and slice into equal portions.
-
Step 20If you wish, strain some "au jus" into small bowls for dipping-I do.
-
Step 21Stand back and mind the snapping teeth.
