Rested and wrapped tightly in foil for a cool down over night in the fridge
Sliced as thinly as possible by hand (meat slicer would have been real handy here)

Definitely one of the BEST Italian Beef Sandwiches I've ever had!
 
Looks delicious. I did Dr. BBQ's Italian Beef not too long ago and need to post up a thread on it. That cook came out great but yours fantastic. I will definitely have to try your method and compare.
 
Looks good! But what's the little red thingy in the roast?

It looks like those pop up thermometers that are put in turkeys that pop when it's supposedly "done."

Thanks for the idea. I am definitely going to try this!
 
Agreed with the others, Something original that I have never tried.
I need to give this a try.
Thanks for the great post!
 
That's looks amazing, so amazing I might add that to one of my future cooks, thanks for the pron.

That's what it looked like to me, too, but I have never seen one in a piece of beef before :confused:

I haven't either but I have seen where you can buy them in a package of 3 and insert them yourself. Maybe that was the plan. ???
