I didn’t make the aioli, but the rest of this dish was excellent.

This recipe is easy to make and its good
Benjamin Griffin
This recipe was so easy and really good. I could have just eaten the beef by itself, but it was great in the sandwich.
Anita Kerr
Good stuff. Very close to restaurant quality. Next time I will add something to sweeten the meat a bit to give it the flavor that I’m familiar with from my favorite local place.
