This roast beef sandwich recipe
was shared with me by Peggy Bucholz and her
Fine Dining website. Peggy says, "I don't like a big mouthful of
too much bread in my sandwich so I came up with the idea of 'digging' out some
of the excess bread - worked perfect! This can be done ahead of time, wrapped in plastic wrap then served when ready."
