I was looking for a good sandwich recipe to go with the Crack and Cheese (post to come) I made for Dave a friend who had outpatient shoulder surgery on Friday and so I went to Tasty Kitchen and found this recipe for Beef Pepperoncini. It was fabulous!! I did make some changes and the changes are what I have listed here. I was going to take a picture of the sandwich itself but my husband was so hungry when he got in there wasn't time.

8 oz jar of pepperoncinis
sliced cheese of choice
4 italian buns
Directions:
1. Put the two steaks side by side (some overlap is okay) in a 9x9 baking dish.
2. Salt and Pepper the tops and pour the juice from the pepperoncinis over the top.
3. Place 1 tablespoon of minced garlic on each steak and rub in.
4. Slice the pepperoncinis into rings excluding the stems and sprinkle over the tops of the steaks.
5. Cover with foil and bake at 350° for two hours or until you can easily shred with two forks.
6. Shred the steaks in the pan you baked them in, mixing the juice and pepperoncinis with the beef.
7. Slice and toast the italian buns.
8. Place sliced cheese on the top bun and the beef mixture on the bottom bun. Don't be shy pile it on!
9. Wrap the sandwich in foil and place back into the oven long enough for the cheese to melt and to reheat the meat. Serve.
