Argentine-style Grilled Alberta Beef Sandwich

Introduction

We're excited to work with Chef Connie DeSousa and Chef John Jackson of charbar in Calgary, AB who created this delicious beef sandwich recipe!

"Butcher cuts are the best cuts of steak. Ask your butcher and explore the different secret cuts of beef. This recipe is the home version of our butcher cut at our restaurant, charbar, inspired by our travels in Argentina. Now everyone can enjoy it anytime of the year. But I think you all agree a Canada Day BBQ is best!"

- Chef Connie DeSousa and Chef John Jackson
