Over the holidays we drove from Saskatchewan to Columbus, Ohio for a wedding. We spent Christmas in Chicago and got to enjoy wet hot Italian beef sandwiches. Wow, they were great! A big thanks to my wife who found the place, Al's #1Beef.

Okay I've never heard of this before and I need to ask: what makes it "wet"?

[–] redundantgrouch 19 points 3 days ago

Matt Damon, mostly.

But also, the sandwich is dipped in the au jus the meat is cooked in.

The meat is basically slow cooked in a vat of fat, meat drippings, and broth. A wet Italian Beef is when you dip the bread of the sandwich fully into that vat, then pile the meat on top.

Thank you! I've never come across one but it sounds delicious.

I think the closest I've had is getting a beef sandwich with a pot of gravy to dip it in myself.
