The Wiz Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 eye of round. can if you want before but add salt/pepper on oil. I like to do mine in the slow cooker for about 3-4 hours and then slice it up with a meat slicer ($50 well spent on amazon). Just use the au jus recipe for the slow cooker instead of water (can add other veggies if you want to it which makes it easier). Quote

So I’m looking for some tips on what cuts people are fond of and any other tips (like cooking times, temps, etc.). I did find a place to obtain rolls locally (I’m near Utica). I tried to make my own last year and they were not very good (barely passable, actually). With the rolls being made for me, I can focus on the meat. Thank you in advance. Go Bills! Expand go to wegmans in Syracuse area…I can get them at mine in northern virginia. Quote
AlfaBill Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) The one big mistake I made was NOT having a beef on weck sandwich the one and only time I visited Buffalo. Big regret. I’ve been looking around locally (western Canada) for a place that makes this specialty ‘wich. wings were great though. I watched the Bills get smashed by the Pats with JP under center.

Expand I have done top round, eye of round and the deli roast beef life hack. Eye of round is, by far, the best route. Top round will do well. But there is a HUGE difference between making and slicing your own roast beef and using deli meat. I do not have Sue Veed, but I'm sure that would result in the best meat. But oven roasting an eye round will give you top quality. Quote
Big Turk Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Not a huge beef on week fan to be honest. It's OK. I always pull most of the salt off the kimmelweck roll and use quality horseradish. 1 Quote

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Remember, horseradish is not a garnish. It is a measure of courage. * Although finding a sinus blasting commercial brand these last few years has been difficult. Quote

Wacka Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Had Beef on Week at Christmas. The horseradish we had was very good. Three of us started coughing from the spiciness of it. Went right up the nose. Best I have breathed afterwards in years. Quote

Irv Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Went to the Genny Brew Pub in Rochester last weekend and ordered their B.o.W. It has Charlie the Butcher beef on it and a really good toll. Washed down with two Genny Screamers. Highly recommended. Quote
Pete Posted January 12, 2022 Posted January 12, 2022 Schwabl’s and Charlie the Butchers are two of our first stops when we visit Buffalo Quote
