Roast Beef Hot Shots | Mini Van Dreams

Roast Beef Hot Shots

Today at work, the girls and I were talking comfort food.  We were trying to explain to my friend (who grew up out west) about our foods in Ohio… chicken and noodles, beer hot shots, buckeyes… Whenever I mention roast beef hot shots, depending on who I am talking to, I sometimes get a strange look.  They don’t know what I am talking about.

I usually then say, “You know, Beef Manhattans.”  Sometimes that clears it up, other times I have to describe the deliciousness of roast beef hot shots to which the usual response is “Those sound amazing.”  (Don’t even get my started about “Cincinnati-style spaghetti.”)

So, my friends near and far… here is the recipe for roast beef hot shots for your dining pleasure.

    Gold ⭐ Star or Skyline ?
    Or even better go across the Ohio into Newport KY. Stop by The Original Chili Parlour on Mommouth St. Yum Yum.

  3. Skyline unless I can get “real” Cinci chili.
