Born and raised in Chicago. The disrespect was insane lol. It is is an ITALIAN beef. They dip it in Au Jus. You can ask for it dry or just some Au Jus poured on it. Also the mix of "celery / carrots" is giardiniera (pronounced: Jar-da-nair-uh). Sweet peppers is also a super popular and a go to for topping on a beef. Best two spots - Johnny's Beef and Al's Beef. Any local knows it.

Dont forget to get a Chicago style dog (Vienna Beef) with all the 7 toppings it comes with!

Hot Dogs: Gene and Jude's, Super Dawgs, or Jimmy's Red Hots. Thin Crust Tavern Style (Real Chicago Pizza): Vito and Nicks or Pats Pizzeria. Deep dish: Pequods (voted #1 pizza in the country by Yelp) or Art of Pizza

You got a fully dipped Sandwich. The Sandwich is submerged in the Au jus. Safe Journey! Have a great day!!!

Hey Nik, you probably won't see this, but please make sure you are taking good care of yourself in between filming by eating lots of fruits and veggies and getting in some exercise by walking.

You do not answer the phone while eating the beef.
