Question: what is the difference between italian beef and roast beef?
Answer: Okay, the differences. Though both use Roast Beef, the Italian has the beef sliced and then poached in the gravy produced from the cooking. ... The French is topped with Cheese and Onion, the Italian Sweet Bell Pepper that's been chucked in a pan for a bit, or Giardiniera, which are chilli pickled vegetables.
