Go to Al's if you ever go to Chicago.
Its on my bucket list as soon as the orange dies.
Did you see the TV show The Bear? It's the only food relevant through the entire series.
Sear some beef and slow cook it with pepperoncini brine, pepperoncinis, giardiniera and broth.
Got a recipe?
This version will definitely work if you only have 8 hours to cook.
You're going to have to look one up. I just eyeball it. But it's searsome beef, put it in a pot with some small amount of pepperoni juice and diced pepperoncinis and gardinara with some stock And a little bit of seasoning that is mostly salt, pepper and thyme. Slow cook it for as many hours as you got.
Add some cheese to the fries and it's perfection.
That's sounds like cultural appropriation. Things are already rough between Canada and the US. I don't want to create an internal incident with bastardized poutine.
But "Italian beef" is perfectly fine.
I'm Italian.
I now understand why the kitchen is yours.
My kitchen. My Dune.
Well if you ever invite me for dinner, it's either because you really like me, or want to prove your sauce is better than mine.
If someone pays for the supplies and isn't a picky eater I'll have almost anyone over as long as they aren't wearing a red hat.

What if the red hat is Canadian :P
As long as it's got enough the right ratio of white.
Hats ruin my hair. What's for dinner?
There's zero money in the bank so I'm thinking this week is going to be pretty much all chili with cornbread and pasta with crusty bread. I have to thaw some venison.
Sounds healthy!
