Our Story

Chicago’s Original
Italian Beef Since 1973

Italian beef is as Chicago as deep-dish pizza and the Cubs. Dating back to Italian immigrant communities near the old Union Stock Yards, this slow-roasted, thinly sliced, jus-soaked sandwich became the city’s signature meal — and Bari Beef has been perfecting it since 1973.

We use only the finest, choicest cuts of beef, slow-roasted in authentic Italian spices and simmered in our legendary gravy. As a trusted supplier to Chicago’s restaurant industry for over 30 years, we bring that same quality directly to your home.

Our products — Italian beef, Italian sausage, meatballs, and giardiniera — are now available to ship nationwide, so you can taste Chicago wherever you are.

1973 Family Owned & OperatedThree generations of Chicago Italian beef tradition. Every batch slow-roasted fresh, every order packed with pride.

What is Chicago Italian Beef?

Chicago-style Italian beef is slow-roasted, thinly sliced seasoned beef served on Italian bread and dipped in its own savory gravy (called “au jus” or “the jus”). Originated by Italian immigrants in the early 20th century, it became Chicago’s most iconic street food. Order it “wet” (dipped in jus), “dry,” or with sweet or hot peppers.
