The 10 Best Italian Beef Sandwiches In Chicago, Ranked - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Carm’s is just a few blocks away from Al’s, sitting on a cute little corner, with a cute little cash-only Italian ice counter, giving the number one spot performance anxiety. Not only is the side of jus the best in Chicago—more like a peppery consomme than a cup of liquid fat—but the bread is so outstanding that you can even order the sandwich dry. But the correct move is to get it dipped, and eat at one of their outdoor tables to make Al’s jealous." - veda kilaru
