Authentic Chicago Italian Beef Recipe - Bonappeteach

Chicago Italian Beef is made by slowly roasting lean beef on a rack above a pan filled with seasoned beef-based stock. Some folks call it gravy, but in most Chicago Italian households gravy is a term reserved for tomato sauces. Others call it au jus or "juice" for short, although it is often made with bouillon, and that is not technically au jus, which normally refers to natural cooking juices. Let's just call it juice, OK? It's what keeps the sandwich nice and moist.
