Roast Beef Sandwiches

  • Save

I love roasted beef it almost screams to me today is going to be a relaxing day. True one pot, one burner or stove cooking is the stuff from fairy tales. And if this all also takes place on a weekend then I could only imagine that’s the same feeling of hitting the lottery. Over complicated sandwiches are fun at restaurants, maybe occasionally at home but for a big crowd it can be miserable. In the past I’ve had sandwiches other than the cooking time of the meat has taken hours from making from scratch sauces to homemade bread, homemade pickles to sourcing ridiculous ingredients stopping short of getting a pig to dig for truffles. Its cool if you have this stuff on hand but to make it all in a day for a idea can be quiet overwhelming so i really appreciate a simple, Easy going recipe. Dont get me wrong i love making wacky, over complicated things too but this recipe is straight to the point. If you want to make a au jus sauce for the side simply skim the fat and season to taste. i opted to not make a au jus for this because the meat was tender and juicy enough and frankly i wasn’t in a dipping or dunking kinda mood. Try it out and let me know what you think!
