The Italian Beef Sandwich has a rich history dating back to the early 1900s in Chicago, where Italian immigrants created this iconic dish. Thinly sliced, seasoned roast beef is slow-cooked in a savory broth, then piled high on a crusty Italian roll. The sandwich is often topped with sweet or hot peppers and dipped in the flavorful cooking juices. Al's Beef, a legendary Chicago eatery, is renowned for perfecting this dish. The key to a great Italian Beef Sandwich lies in the quality of the beef, the seasoning, and the juiciness of the meat. For an authentic taste of this classic, head to Chicago's Italian neighborhoods.
