When I first noticed people from Illinois taking sides on social media for which local food joint had the best Italian Beef Pie, I had to ask myself one question. What the heck is an Italian Beef Pie? According to a recipe for I.B.P. on the Pillsbury website, the ingredients look very similar to what you would have on a pizza but will be in pie form, similar to a quiche.
What are the best restaurants and pizza parlors in the northern Illinois area that serve up this savory dish? According to a recent debate over the best Italian Beef Pie between Rosati's and Moscato's, several other suggestions for local eateries were posted on the "What's Happening in Belvidere" Facebook page.
