FlaSoxxJim Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Mmmmmm... Italian beef. Somebody send me an Al's quick! (And while you're on Taylor get me a big Italian lemonade from Mario's too.) I miss my Chicago food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 QUOTE(T R U @ Apr 26, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) soggy bread is gross Are you kidding me? That's the best part! And nope, I'm not kidding...honestly, I would be just as satisified with dipping a roll in the (italian beef) juice. The meat just takes up space to me. I LOVE beef in general (Seasoned Skirt Steak+Rice Pilaf is one of my favorite meals), but that's one sandwich I'm fine without it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepyWhiteSox Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Weird... I had an italian beef tonight from Lulu's after not having one for at least 7 months and this thread comes up.

Kid Gleason Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 4-5 lbs of butt roast 1 jar of pepperochini's (peppers and juice) 1 pack of dry Italian Salad dreassing shake in some Italian seasonings (the type of thing McCormick or Lawrys makes) 1 can of beef broth Cut roast in cubes, throw everything into crock pot, bring to a boil, as soon as it boils, drop temp to a simmer , and let the badride slow cook for about 4-5 hours. Beef will at that point just fall apart. THIS is the best Italian Beef I have ever had. You folks out of town, give it a whirl, and you will be VERY happy.

DBAHO Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Personally I wouldn't have anything with peppers or anything spicy inside of a sandwich, and I'm not even a huge sandwich person anyway. Something with just ham or chicken or beef, with some cheese, lettuce, mayo is probably up my alley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lose all of their flavor, and they actually taste pretty bad after the cook. My wife HATES peppers, and almost threw up when she saw me dump the jar into the pot. BUT she was a trooper and decided to have a sandwich when it was done. She ended up having two and said it was by far the best Italian Beef she ever had.

Queen Prawn Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 We got beef sandwiches a couple weeks ago from Portillos. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm He gets his with mozzarella only (okay, sometimes red sauce, but not that often) and I get mine with hot peppers only. Drooling just thinking about it. When I attended UIC, I went to Al's one time and was not impressed at all. Maybe it was just an off day. Brian said when they were at Wicklander they would go to Taylor street for lunch all the time (Illinois Bar and Grill, Al's, etc) and said he was never that crazy about Al's either.

Case in point, I had a piece of my friend's spicy Pizza at work last nite. It had the usual things you find on a Supreme like pepperoni and this really hot sauce on it (even he admitted they put way more on that usual). I took one bite of that, and proceeded to skull about 3 to 4 bottles of water in under 2 minutes, trying to get the heat out of my mouth. Too bad I ended up going to the bathroom about every 30 mins thereafter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
