Does anyone have a favourite recipe they’d like to share?
I am making Italian beef for the first time today.
I noticed some recipes are very simple, with virtually no herbs, and other recipes call for tons of dried herbs, garlic powder, and onion powder.
This is the recipe that’s closest to what I will make today:
Any thoughts on this?

Thank you!
That’s an awesome thread.
I made a Chicago Beef inspired blade tonight, braising until the internal temp was close to 195 ⁰F.
Whatever I made, we liked it.
This is the closest to what I made tonight.
I added fennel and rosemary to an Italian herb blend.

Note that you can order Italian beef in gravy frozen from Vienna, Al’s, and Buona, and Portillo’s. All are available via Goldbelly, though there might be cheaper options.
If you ever find yourself in Chicago, it’s quite possible to buy one of the frozen ribs of Italian beef, stuff it in your checked baggage insulated with a thermal blanket or leakproof cold packs, and have it come out just fine.
I’ve also done this just the other day with Vienna natural casing hotdogs. You can buy the skinless variety on most grocery stores, but I ended up driving down the factory store to get the casing ones. Gotta have that snap.
