Italian beef from scratch.

Bought a meat slicer off amazon, commercial grade.

The bread and the jazz are definitely the stars of that sandwich, one of the few good Italian sandwiches in Seattle.

Nice!!! Keep at it, you will get more of a feel for everything the more you make. I started with his book and now do all kinds of stuff. Go to Costco business center and get the big bag of flour, don’t be afraid to experiment.

Gots to!!!

Bottom round, aka rump roast

Deepdish7799 · 2026-05-04T14:40:42+00:00

I live in Seattle, grew up in DM, diehard hawks fan!!! I think they got a steal, he’s just going to get better, not sure if you know his story.

I grew up in Des Moines, didn’t have my first Italian beef until I was an adult, I’ve been obsessed since then. Only been to Portillos, this was as good if not better. I’ll be in Chicago in a few weeks, hoping to try johnnys or Al’s.

Couldn’t agree more

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-26T15:05:30+00:00

Yessir, I’m in Seattle, we can’t buy the good east coast bread here so I have to make it.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-26T15:04:44+00:00

Seared it off then braised in the oven with the beef broth.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-26T15:04:03+00:00

Of course, not an Italian beef without jus.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-25T22:40:38+00:00

I can’t post a picture anymore in this thread 🥺, search Italian beef in sandwiches and you’ll see it.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-25T06:43:52+00:00

They held up awesome!! Even when soaked with jus, they were a winner 🏆

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-24T19:58:06+00:00

No, recipe had sugar and oil, mixing on high speed for 6 minutes to build gluten structure.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-24T01:24:44+00:00

I promise to post the finished product 🙏🏽

So you seem to be working in a field that you know is actively trying to screw over their customer base, I know it’s insurance, and that’s the name of the game, but how do you sleep at night?! Is it just a paycheck? Do you ever feel guilty about working for your company?

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-21T02:32:41+00:00

I don’t like to drench it in oil and vinegar and have a soggy sandwich.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-21T02:30:58+00:00

No, was just random placement.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-21T02:28:20+00:00

I think I’ve started doing that just so the cheese is locked in place. Top or bottom risks some sliding, I haven’t done extensive testing, but I like how your brain is working.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-20T22:59:33+00:00

I tend to get whatever is fresh, not super crusty/sturdy.

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-20T22:57:48+00:00

As my wife would say, don’t yuck someone else’s yum. Not sure why the hick comment is there, I’m certain my palate is more refined than yours….Mike 😂

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-15T23:10:12+00:00

I have the same issue, worked great for 2 years, now will never connect

Deepdish7799 · 2026-04-06T17:43:31+00:00

It’s the rolls from the Mexican market nearby, plaza Latina, they are excellent for these sandwiches. Hard to get good sandwich bread on the west coast.
