Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

The pit beef places I've been to offered rounds ...
It's the thin thin slicing that seems to make much of the
difference.

Very thin slicing certainly does help cope with otherwise tough
cuts.

Philly cheesesteak takes shaved rib roast and
turns it gray and tough, the reverse process.

What a nasty thing to do to rib! The truck stop I mentioned uses
slow roasted round, slice thin and when the time is right re-heated
briefly on a griddle with a film of hamburger and bacon grease.
Maybe that's not authentic Philly style but it's good.

Title: Arcadian Eight Bean Chili
Bill Pfeiffer, 1982 World Champion Chili
THIS RECIPE APPEARS TO BE A LIE

What a hoot!

That chili with beans recipe is by Anne Rosenzweig who owned the now
closed Arcadia restaurant and some other places in New York.

That Pfeiffer guy won in 1980 with his Capital Punishment Chili and
then again in 1982 with this, (same recipe renamed)...
