Very good and much like "Chicago Italian Beef," but like other reviewers thought it was way too salty. Will definitely make it again but will use low sodium beef broth and much less salad dressing mix. I'm assuming the salt content of the salad dressing mix and/or the olives in the pepperoncini might be the culprit. Will check labels before I make again though.

I was skeptical at first when I read people comparing this recipe to Chicago style Italian Beef Sandwiches. This recipe is awesome! it has a great tangy flavor and sooo easy!! Tips: use low salt broth, and I only put half the jar of pepperocini in and that seemed like more than enough. My husband is picky and he liked it! oh and I'm feeding it to my family from Chicago this weekend!

Really good recipe, and VERY easy. I have made it many, many times, and each time might be a little different--depends on what I have on hand. The one that is NEVER skipped , of course, is the jar of peppers. Works great with sliced beef OR a whole roast that is shredded after cooking. Thanks for this recipe!

I've made this recipe many times and it is wonderful! It seems to turn out differently each time though (I think it's the beef). It actually turned out the best when I used a small slow cooker, I was so worried because I was throwing a party and was using my big one for meatballs and my friend brought this tiny crock pot for the Italian beef. I couldn't believe how great it turned out in that puny (sp?) thing. I think having everything kind of cramped together helped the beef to really absorb the flavor of the seasoning and the peppers. (I do add a little bit of the pepper juice each time too.) Thanks so much for sharing your recipe!

These were easy to make as I just did mine on top of the stove, however, the salt content has to be reduced. My hands and legs were so swollen after eating. Way too salty. Because of this, I won't be making again.

I actually used these seasonings to slow-cook a roast with. It was great - we had it with rice. Really salty and flavorful.

Everyone liked it and a couple people requested the recipe, but I agree that it's a little too salty. After making it several more times, I've found that using reduced sodium beef broth makes it much better.

I have had wonderful Italian beef sandwiches in Chicago and was anxious to try to make them at home. This recipe was a huge disappointment. They were WAY too salty and had very little other flavor. I hate to waste food, but I had to throw mine out after a courageous effort to try to eat it all. My husband did eat his. Really awful.

EXCELLENT! My husbands favorite sandwich is a french dip and he couldn't stop raving when I made these. I didn't add the pepperocini's because I feared the kids reactions and they were still great. I made a butter and garlic spread and toasted it on my roll before adding the beef and it was delicious. Not exactly low sodium, but a great treat. I have a feeling my husband will request this one a lot!

I added all of the juice from the peppers and I think it was too much...it overpowered the taste of the beef. Very easy to prepare. I will try it again.

I live in chicago and my family loves italian beef!! This recipe was great. I added a bay leaf and took out some of the peppers. I froze leftovers and it reheats even better! My family recommends to add a slice of cheese to your sandwich too for more ooey-gooeyness!
