I like Al's and Michael's for their hot girdeinrea, but Johnnie's beef is the best to me. I wouldn't even be shocked if people would go to Al's or Michael's just for the girdeinrea and put it on a Johnnie's beef. It sounds crazy, but people do that for Uncle Remus and Harold's over mild sauce.

Al is spot on about assuming the Italian Stance....otherwise the front of your garment will have drippings on it. A Beef is a fun, messy meal like barbecued ribs slathered in sauce, but you gotta be careful or everyone will know you just ate.

Al’s is the best, super super close 2nd is Johnnie’s. Can’t go wrong with either, both are outstanding.

This guy is the epitome of a Chicago accent. I moved to Wisconsin when I was 13. I didn’t understand when people said I had an accent. I don’t have it until I visit relatives.

Doze Cheeseheads got a accent too, ya know ? Ya hey der. 😂

Serrellis finer food's on North ave. Over 85+years in making the best Italian beef.

You definitely hit the right spot Al's 🔥🔥💯

Business 101. Give the customer WHAT THEY WANT. This owner is doing exactly that. People want the nastalgia and he gives it to them too. Excellent video.

Great guy, better beef at Johnnies!

Mr. Beef is #1 in my book, but Al's and Johnnie's are close. I love how Al's owner doesn't care who's got the best Italian beef.

I like Portillo gravy but AL meat is better quality. But per lb, Al is about $10 more.

To me the worst beef in Chicago they put cinnamon in their gravy that make it sweet Johnny’s is the best

@brianohara5696 Месяц назад

Ripoff. $11 for a three inch sandwich $20 for a 7 inch sandwich . The Patio on Taylor Street has a much better Italian Beef sandwich at half the price !!!

@tomthalon8956 5 месяцев назад

Sliced roast beef in au jus on a good roll. These look good, just like hundreds of other shops across the nation.

@solo741 7 месяцев назад

I can make 3lbs of Italian beef at home for $15. That’s an absurd amount he’s charging for one sandwich.

@robert7984 6 месяцев назад

Break it down. I don't believe you.

@solo741 6 месяцев назад

@@robert7984 3lb sirloin tip $10, zesty Italian dressing packet $.75 , hot giardiniera $3, roll $.50.

@oldironsides4107 5 месяцев назад

@solo741 That’s not the price of anything. 3 lbs of sirloin tips for $10. 75 cents for Italian. Dressing and 50 cents for a roll Are you an ole Timey chimney sweeper $3 a pound sirloin and the rest of your prices. Yiu may as well pay a homeless bum to pick out of his garbage he collected for your bargain.

@solo741 5 месяцев назад

@@oldironsides4107 Jewel has BOGO on sirloin tip at least once a month. That is the right price on the zesty Italian dressing packets which you can also get BOGO at Jewel. The rolls I gave you the price of a single roll but you can get a pack of 6 for $1.50 so a single roll is actually .25. Giardiniera is the only one that is difficult to find on sale but you have to buy in bulk when it is. Remember that this guy is also buying in bulk and I think he makes his own giardiniera if I’m remembering the video right, so even if he’s paying $5 a pound, which is doubtful, he’s still paying less than $20 for a 3 pound batch.
