How to Make Italian Beef Sandwiches With Horseradish Sauce
- In a large Dutch oven or slow cooker, brown the beef cubes in batches with 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Add the chopped onion, garlic, and green bell pepper to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the beef broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, basil, and bay leaves.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-6 hours in a slow cooker or 3-4 hours in a Dutch oven on the stovetop, or until the beef is incredibly tender.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare the horseradish sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Once the beef is cooked, shred it using two forks. Skim off excess fat from the cooking liquid.
- To assemble the sandwiches, place the shredded beef on crusty rolls. Top generously with the horseradish sauce and provolone cheese (optional).
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
