CHEF JOHN'S BEEF ON WECK SANDWICHES
Welcome to one of this country's most delicious unknown sandwiches, the Beef on Weck. This simple but brilliant creation features thinly sliced, horseradish-covered roast beef piled high on a freshly baked kummelweck roll. When you add a steaming ramekin of fresh beef jus for dunking, you'll understand why this is the pride of Western New York (sorry, chicken wings). Serve with chips or fries and pickles on the side.

Steps:
- Season beef with salt and black pepper.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef roast in hot oil until browned on all sides on each side, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C). Transfer beef to a plate to rest.
- Remove skillet from heat and whisk flour into skillet until flour taste cooks off, about 1 minute. Pour cold beef broth into skillet; place skillet over medium-high heat. Stir balsamic vinegar, black pepper, and any accumulated juices from the roast beef plate into beef broth mixture; cook until jus reduces slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
- Slice sirloin as thinly as possible against the grain. Pile meat onto the base of each roll. Spread a thick layer of horseradish on the top bun and place top bun over meat. Serve with jus for dipping.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, or in the bowl of an electric mixer, combine all of the ingredients except the topping, mixing to form a shaggy dough.
- Knead the dough, by hand or by machine, for 10 minutes. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes, then knead for an additional 10 minutes, until it's smooth and supple.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover the bowl, and allow it to rest for 1 hour; it'll become quite puffy, though it may not double in bulk. You may also use your bread machine, set on the Dough cycle, to prepare the dough to this point.
- Divide the dough into six 3 1/4-ounce (92g) pieces, and shape them into smooth, slightly flattened rounds. Place them on a baking sheet, covered, to rise for 1 hour, or until they're good and puffy.
- While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Brush the rolls with the beaten egg white, and sprinkle lightly (or not) with the topping. Bake them for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they're golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack; they're best served the same day they're made, though they do reheat nicely. Freeze for up to 1 month.
- TO MAKE A BEEF ON WECK SANDWICH
- Warm the au jus sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the roast beef and let it warm up at the same time.
- Carefully dip the top bun in the au jus. Not a dunk or anything, just enough to moisten the part that will come into contact with the roast beef.
- Pile the beef on the bottom bun, slightly higher than you think you should. Beef on Weck is all about go big or go home.
- Serve the sliced beef on the rolls with the au jus and horseradish on the side.

Steps:
- Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. If desired, use kitchen twine to truss the beef ( see video here ).
- Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add the beef and cook 3-4 minutes on each side, or until deeply browned. Transfer the beef from the pan to your crockpot; insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast. For medium-rare roast beef, cook on LOW until the temperature reaches 140º - about 2.5 hours.
- While the beef cooks, prepare your slider rolls: Heat oven to 350º. Remove the dough from the tubes and cut each crosswise into 12 pieces (for a total of 24 pieces of dough). Roll each piece of dough into a ball. Remove the roast from the crockpot and tent with foil. Let sit 20 minutes.
- Mix the salt and caraway on a small plate. Gently press the top of each roll into the seasoning mixture, then arrange on a baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool. Slice crosswise.
- Add water to the drippings that have collected in the bottom of the crockpot. Turn heat to high and bring to a simmer. Remove the twine from the beef. Slice the beef as thinly as you can.
- Dip the cut sides of the rolls in the jus. Top with sliced roast beef and a thin schmear of horseradish.

BEEF ON WECK
I first tried this when I went to visit my girlfriend in Buffalo, NY and I loved it so she fixed it again a couple of years later when my husband went with me and he fell in love with it so I made it at home for the first time a couple of months ago and it turned out so good my husband wants me to make it all the time. It is strictly a Buffalo thing and we can't find the kimmelweck buns so I just use Kaiser rolls. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
