Famed “Big Onion” Roast Beef Sandwich

This recipe was developed at the Big Onion Tavern in Ravenna, Nebraska and was passed on from owner to owner as a trade secret. The Big Onion was famous for this sandwich and people traveled great distances just to have one. The tavern is no longer in existence.

Roast a 3 – 4 lb. beef roast slowly at no more than 325 degrees to retain juices and promote tenderness. Set roast in about ¼” water. Add the following ingredients proportionate to the size of the roast:

Bay Leaves
Sage
Chili Powder
Salt and Pepper
Onions
Worcestershire Sauce

Slice beef into thin slices when cold. Reheat the beef in the broth saved from roasting for the sandwiches. Tastes best when served with hot homemade mustard.
