Italian Beef Sandwiches are tender, slow-cooked beef sandwiches filled with onions, bell peppers and garlic for classic savory flavor. Made with Culinary Genie Salt-Free Zesty Italian & Pizza Seasoning Blend, the beef develops rich Italian herb flavor as it cooks slowly in beef broth. The flavorful cooking broth doubles as a dipping sauce. Serve the shredded beef piled onto toasted rolls or buns for a hearty sandwich that's perfect for family dinners, game day or casual entertaining.
