We all liked this sandwich very much. I made as directed except for the roasted red peppers. When I opened my jar of peppers, they were spoiled so I had to proceed without them. I know the peppers would be awesome in this though, so next time, I will be sure to use them. I still had about 1/3 cup of liquid left after heating through so I just drained it off. Then, I thought that maybe I should have kept it for a dipping sauce (like au jus). Thx for sharing this recipe!

I have made this recipe over and over and over. Love it!! It won't let me rate again so I'm giving it a 5 star, more if I could. I don't use the red peppers because I don't like them. Sometimes to give it a little more zip I use Worcestershire sauce instead of the soy and red wine. I use Ciabatta buns and provolone cheese. I want to try other sandwiches but I keep making these because I know these are sooooo good.

Wonderful sandwich! I made this as directed, but used leftover flank steak instead of the roast. I used some sharp cheddar and provolone cheeses as that's what I had on hand. I love messy sandwiches and this was terrific. Thanks Wildflour for a wonderful treat. Made for ZWT4 Family Picks.

Simply superb. I don't know what else to say. Served mine on a crusty roll and used shredded beef that was cooked in garlic & onions then started cooking at step 4. I had some smoky provolone as the cheese of choice and it was just outstanding. made for ZWT4 Family Picks/ Daffy Daffodils.
