Ingredients
Dry Rub
- 4 ounces - dried basil
- 2 ounces - dried oregano
- 1 ounce - black pepper
- 1 ounce - garlic powder
- 1 ounce - onion powder
- 1/2 ounce - kosher salt
Meat
- 1 quart - beef stock
- One 6- to 7-pound - eye-of-round beef roast, trimmed
Gravy
- 5 ounces - beef base
- 2 ounces - black pepper
- 8 - garlic cloves
- 3 - celery stalks, chopped
- 2 - bay leaves
- 2 - large onions, with skins, chopped
- 12 - Hoagie rolls
- 1 quart - hot or mild giardiniera
- Step 1 Blend together the basil, oregano, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and kosher salt to create the dry rub.
- Step 2 Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Step 3 Pour beef stock and 1 quart of water into a roasting pan. Position the beef roast on a perforated pan over the roasting pan. Generously coat the roast with the dry rub mixture.
- Step 4 Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and roast in the oven until the center of the beef reaches 140°F, approximately 30 minutes per pound.
- Step 5 Allow the beef to cool in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to facilitate thin slicing.
- Step 6 For the gravy, combine the beef base, black pepper, garlic, chopped celery, bay leaves, and chopped onions in a stockpot with 1 gallon of cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for at least 1 hour. Strain and keep the gravy hot.
- Step 7 When ready to serve, warm the sliced beef in the hot gravy for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Step 8 Assemble the sandwiches by placing the heated beef into hoagie rolls and topping with giardiniera. Serve and enjoy.
