Chicago's Italian beef is a lesson in patience. The roast cooks only to medium-rare, then chills completely so it can be shaved thin enough to see through. Those slices take a quick bath in hot, peppery jus right before serving, soaking up flavor without overcooking. Hot giardiniera, a spicy pickled vegetable mix in oil, cuts the richness. Do the roasting a day ahead and the rest comes together in minutes. Serve with extra jus for dipping, and plenty of napkins.
