This Italian Beef Sandwich starts with rump roast slow cooked until fork tender in Italian seasonings. Then it is shredded and placed back into the juices until you are ready to make the sandwiches, served with the au jus for dipping.

You can read all about this pairing in my Ziobaffa post shared Thursday. Then, should you be reading this early enough you can join us for Twitter Chat as we discuss the wines we opened for this Organic Italian Wine event. We are meeting at 11 AM ET and you will find us by following #ItalianFWT. We love having guests.
This sandwich is just like a French Dip but using Italian herbs and seasonings and Mozzarella cheese to make it an Italian Dip. It was a nice change of pace and I used the leftovers to make Tacos the following Tuesday, topping them with my Homemade Giardiniera for a little Italian/Mexican fusion. So much fun.
