Italian Beef

Note: This is a dish from the upper Midwest, particularly Illinois, where it is served on a long sandwich roll with grilled onions and pepperoncini. There was a lady who came by with these sandwiches to our law office in Carbondale every Tuesday, which we renamed "Italian Beef Day." - Laura
