I'm originally from the Windy City so I love Chicago-style beef. These tender sandwiches lend an authentic flavor, and they're so simple to prepare using a slow cooker. -Lois Szydlowski, Tampa, Florida

BEEF ROLLS (RINDSROULADEN)



Beef Rolls (Rindsrouladen) image

Posted for the Zaar World Tour-Germany. This recipe is from my German great-grandmother. I took these to my son's school for "Heritage Day" when he was young. The other students/parents were a little "apprehensive" to try them when they were told these rolls had pickles, onions, and mustard in them. Needless to say, they were a big hit and I didn't bring any leftovers home.

CHICAGO-STYLE ITALIAN BEEF SANDWICH



Chicago-Style Italian Beef Sandwich image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Time 5h5m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 boneless beef chuck eye roast (about 3 1/2 pounds), tied with butcher's twine
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1/2 cup dry red wine
5 cups beef stock (or enough to submerge the roast about three-quarters of the way)
2 sprigs fresh thyme
4 green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch-wide strips
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 soft hinged French rolls (preferably from Turano or Gonnella bakeries)
Oil-packed hot giardiniera, for topping

Steps:

  • For the pot roast: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F.
  • Liberally sprinkle the entire roast with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides until golden and caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes per side; reduce the heat if the fat begins to smoke. Transfer the roast to a plate and reduce the heat to medium.
  • Add the onions and a pinch of salt and saute, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper and garlic and saute until fragrant, another minute. Deglaze with the red wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Simmer until reduced by about half, another 2 to 5 minutes. Add the stock and thyme and bring to a simmer. Adjust the seasoning of the liquid.
  • Put the roast back in the pot with any accumulated juices and place in the oven, covered. Cook the roast, turning every 30 minutes and uncovering the pot for the last 30 minutes of cooking, until very tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and tent with foil. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F for the peppers and bread.
  • For the sweet peppers: Toss the pepper strips with the olive oil, granulated garlic and some salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring halfway through, until lighter in color and softened, about 45 minutes.
  • Strain the pot roast jus through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl and return to the pot. Bring to a simmer and simmer until reduced slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Keep warm.
  • Once the meat has cooled a bit, remove the twine. Pull the meat into smaller chunks and return to the reduced jus until ready to build the sandwiches.
  • For the sandwich build: Rub the rolls with some of the giardiniera oil and toast in the oven until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Place some beef on a roll, then some sweet peppers (with some of the oil they were cooked in), followed by some hot giardiniera. Pour a small dish of reduced jus. Quickly dunk the whole sandwich in the hot jus, then wrap in deli paper or parchment paper and wait for 2 to 3 minutes while the magic happens. Repeat with the remaining rolls and toppings. When ready, open up and eat!

Categories     Snacks

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 ½ lb beef chuck roast
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, thiny sliced
½ cup pickled pepperoncini peppers
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 ½ cups beef broth
1 tablespoon water, plus more for boiling
⅓ cup baking soda
1 lb pizza dough
8 slices provolone cheese, quartered, plus 2-4, cut into ½-inch strips, divided
1 large egg
garlic powder, for sprinkling
1 cup giardiniera, or other Italian pickled vegetables

Steps:

  • Make the Italian beef: Season the beef with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Set the Instant Pot to Sauté, then add the olive oil and heat until shimmering. Add the beef to the Instant Pot and sear until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
  • Add the onion to the Instant Pot and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the pepperoncinis, garlic, tomato paste, and oregano and stir to combine for about 2 minutes, then stir in the beef broth.
  • Return the beef to the Instant Pot, making sure it is covered by some of the broth and onions. Secure the lid, making sure the steam valve is set to Sealing. Set to Pressure Cook on High for 1 hour. When the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally, about 15 minutes.
  • Uncover the Instant Pot and transfer the beef to a cutting board, leaving the cooking liquid behind in the pot. Set the Instant Pot to Sauté and simmer the cooking liquid until reduced, about 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, shred the beef with two forks.
  • Make the rolls: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Fill a medium pot a little over halfway with water and the baking soda. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Divide the pizza dough into 8 portions, then roll each out to a ¼-½-inch-thick circle. Fill each round with 4 quarter-slices of Provolone cheese and some of the shredded beef. Gather the dough around the meat and cheese, pinching the seams to seal, and roll into smooth balls.
  • Working in batches, boil the rolls until the outside is slightly cooked, 45-60 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water.
  • Brush the rolls with the egg wash and sprinkle the tops with garlic powder. Place 2 Provolone strips on top of each roll to create an "X" shape.
  • Bake the rolls for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Serve the rolls warm with the reduced braising liquid and chopped giardiniera.
  • Enjoy!
