I would have gone full cross section slices, but I understand the little spear thing. Looks like jalapeno for ants though. 

 

But seriously.  Great looking sandwich. 

i went with strips because the rest of the pepper ended up in pico, where i like a fine dice.

Ham, prosciutto, mortadella, and salami. Provolone and LTOP, red wine vinegar, s&p, Italian seasoning and cherry pepper relish on a leftover piece of H‑E‑B French bread. Bread was the weakest link. I need better sub rolls. 76C05586-A684-4D2F-A708-247483A7F342.thumb.jpeg.55ccb3d2b3172cf39a30fbe8f2b2f790.jpeg

There's not much better than an Italian sammich. Very fine entry, sir.

go to your local korean or chinese market (h mart or 99 ranch market) and look for thin sliced beef.  shabushabu/hot pot will be a thinner cut than beef for kbbq, generally.

I hadn't thought of ShabuShabu in years.  I had it in Tokyo many moons ago.  And lots of Sake.

Looks great -- where'd you buy the bread?

royal bakery in the crime-free montrose.  so much better than using HEB's french/french sticks/sandwich/bollilos, which are all too crusty for a sandwich.

I know that. I don’t like the texture of these fat boys that have big solid pith so I trim it out. Don’t like that sponge part as it’s pepper placenta. I also clean my shrimp, peel my ribs, and grind my own hamburger.

Im saying a lot of the chilies I’m buying lately are either super hot, even trimmed out, or flavorless, not like a trimmed jalapeño or even a bell pepper.

I had major sinus surgery twenty years ago and my tolerance for scovilles collapsed. I went from the habanero guy to the medium salsa guy, and my Thai scale moved from hot to mild. The docs didn’t tell me that might be a side effect of the surgery. But I was in Portland which hasn’t ever seen a chile pepper. I am sure any of you ents in Texas would either warn us or make sure not to fuck with the chile thing in my nose.

Costco in Pflugerville was selling packages of thinly sliced ribeyes last week, so I made cheesesteaks.   Big portion of meat, cheese, onions, and jalapeños.

The sauce and meatballs are homemade, a lot of eyeballing goes into the balls but I’ll do the best I can.
The sauce is basically a dumbed down version of a red sauce that I’d use for pasta or the base for a meat sauce.  Half a shallot and 3-4 cloves of garlic on olive oil for a few minutes followed by 3/4 cup of white wine to deglaze until the alcohol is cooked out.  Big can of crushed tomatoes, half a small can of tomato sauce, and half a tube of tomato paste get added.  Salt, pepper and a lot of dried Italian seasoning.  Few splashes of Worcestershire, stir and bring to a boil and then reduce heat to simmer.
Two pounds of meat make about two dozen balls for the size I make them.  I go two thirds ground beef, one third ground pork.  I combine the meat and pork with 3/4 to one cup of Panko.  I add a handful of fresh grated Parmesan, small handful of finely chopped herbs (fresh basil, Italian parsley), some salt, pepper, some Worcestershire, and 2 eggs.  I get that mixed and all incorporated by hand and then add 1/4 of milk.  Mix some more and keep adding a few splashes of milk until I get the wetness I want in my balls.  Then I form by hand and bake at 400 for ten minutes (longer if you have bigger balls).  

They are probably 80% cooked at this point, but I pull them and finish in the simmering sauce until they are 155-160 degrees.  

Bread is from Noble Bread Co.  A solid bakery here in AZ.  I boat cut the bread, think 90’s pre pedo subway, then add a provolone cheese hinge.  Add the meatballs and sauce and then some shredded mozzarella and dried Italian seasoning goes on top.  Finish under the broiler for a couple minutes.  Let cool for a few minutes… shit comes out hot.  

Thanks man! I think the key is how you’re saving the milk for last after mixing the other ingredients. Gonna make some.
