But “Italian beef” is perfectly fine.

Go to Al’s if you ever go to Chicago.

I’m Italian.

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.

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.

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!

Got a recipe?

Its on my bucket list as soon as the orange dies.

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.

Here’s a YouTube video of it.

Edit: Here’s another, written recipe that’s a bit shorter (and isn’t by a YouTuber).

This version will definitely work if you only have 8 hours to cook.
