Al's Famous Italian Beef
Al's beef is dry roasted in a secret recipe blend of 100% pure spices and natural juices. Our beef is pure. The Au Jus or Gravy as Al calls it, is where all of our flavors are soaking with the beef. We will add as little or as much "gravy" to your sandwich as you want. But most Al's connoisseurs prefer their beef sandwich wet or dipped and with sweet and hot peppers. ABOUT THE "GRAVY": "Gravy" is a term many Italians use to describe their pasta sauce and in this case, we use it to describe our beef juice. NOT to be confused with the traditional turkey gravy consistency, Al's beef gravy is an incredibly light, aromatic and flavorful juice. NOT the thick heavy "gravy you put on mashed potatoes. Extras for the sandwich include our delicious homemade sweet peppers, homemade spicy (hot) giardiniera, or provolone cheese. You can get your famous Al's Italian Beef Sandwich in 4 different levels of juiciness:
Regular
That's how we do it for most of our guests. Just enough beef gravy (the "juice") is added to make it nice and juicy, but not over the top.
Wet
Additional gravy is added to the sandwich, the juicier the better.
Dipped
The crown jewel of juicy, the entire sandwich is submerged into the gravy. Roll up your sleeves and get ready to eat! You'll need the "Italian Stance" for this one.
Dry
No extra gravy goodness but still delicious. You might want to re-think this option though. Our beef gravy is the gold. Go ahead and be a little adventurous and crazy; get it a little wet. You'll love it.
Big Al
Big Al recommends you talk like him when ordering:
"I'll take a Beef, Dipped wit Hot and Sweet"
That's the sandwich that made us famous!
Fresh Cut Fries
Everyday we hand-cut our fries from fresh Idaho potatoes that are picked from potato fields that we personally choose. We are VERY particular about our potatoes. It's not just any potato that can be an Al's potato. It's a must try addition to any sandwich. Voted one of the "Top 10 Best" in the USA:
A Small Cup or a Large Cup of Fries
for the French fry purest.

Char-Grilled Italian Sausage
We char-grill all our Italian sausage in our stores. This is the way Italian sausage was meant to be eaten. Al's Italian sausage has just a little "kick" of spiciness. That's what makes it unforgettable. Order any of these items just like you would an Italian Beef Sandwich. Get it Regular, Dry, Wet, or Dipped. You can add Sweet Peppers, Hot Giardiniera, or Provolone Cheese.
