Steps:
- 1. Put everything in a crock pot on LOW for 8 hours.
- 2. At the end of 8 hours, remove and shred the beef. Put back in crock pot for another 1.5-2 hours.
- 3. Taste broth and correct for salt/seasonings. (There is a lot of salt in the dry dressing). Looking for very savory flavor. If desired, add an additional 2 sliced onions (gives good texture to the sandwich)at this step.
- 4. After a full 10 hours, get your toasted buns and roasted red peppers and/or hot peppers and build the best Chicago style Italian beef sandwich this side of the Mississippi (am on the East Coast).
- 5. Some people like to put this on sub rolls, top w/provolone and run under the broiler... oh yeah, its that good. Enjoy!
