Good fast meal. It's major value is in the short time it takes to prepare it. flavorful too. Serve with fat free potato chips and a veggie relish plate.

Wow! This was so quick to make that I couldn't believe how delicious it turned out to be. My hubby said he had a couple guys in mind he wanted to invite next time to enjoy this. I sauteed some onion, mushrooms, and jalapenos in butter and put those on top along with some provolone cheese.

Hubby really liked the slightly spicy sauce on this French Dip type sandwich. I think that this might replace my usual quick and easy "French Dip" that I have always prepared with deli meats. I used roasted garlic ciabatta rolls and loved the added flavor.

One of the easiest recipes out there. It came together in no time at all, and it was delicious. Next time, I might add a little cheese because why not? But other than that, it was perfect!

Very good. My rating is based on the recipe as written. I decided to prepare a second time, this time topping the beef with sautéed onion, bell pepper and provolone cheese. (thank you Ms Pugs) Additionally, since my first attempt was a little soggy, I brushed the roll with a little olive oil and a pinch of garlic powder then toasted it slightly under the broiler. Either way a nice game day sandwich.

Really tasty recipe!! I made this for dinner yesterday and they were a flavorful hit! I used 2lbs. thinly sliced, RARE deli roast beef, instead of 1lb. (1lb. leftover London broil and 1lb. seasoned roast beef), 5 fresh garlic cloves instead of 2 (roughly chopped...I LOVE GARLIC), and chose to use the chili sauce instead of ketchup. Once the rare roast beef started to cook and the juices blended with the sauce, the beef turned out so tender and made the sauce very flavorful. However, the next time I make this dish, I will use only 8oz. of beer instead of 12oz. Though my guest liked it (he likes beer...lol), when it was all done, I could taste the beer a little bit (and I don't like beer). As another reviewer suggested, I allowed the sauce to reduce a bit. While the sauce was reducing, I used tongs and placed the beef into a fine mesh handheld strainer held over the pan so that the juices would drain back into the pan. Then I placed the drained beef into a serving bowl and covered to keep warm. Once all the beef was out of the pan, I mashed up the softened garlic in the pan with the sauce and served the sauce on the side. Ooooo weeee, that dipping sauce was soooo guuuudt!! I served on toasted sub buns and topped with caramelized onions, sauteed red and green bell peppers and havarti cheese with a side of Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges (http://www.food.com/recipe/oven-roasted-sweet-potato-wedges-107546). A huge hit and will be making again!!
