Italian Beef Sandwiches
Y’all may think I’m crazy for trying these TikTok recipes, but they’re amazing! And they don’t require that I watch a 30 minute video…I get to see a recipe in like 1 minute…I love it! These sandwiches are FANTASTIC. The giardiniera really sets them off and you can control the spiciness of this dish by getting hot, medium or mild in the giardiniera. This is a great dish to serve for a large crowd!
