This is a fabulous short cut! I ended up using the dried beef in the jar, since I was making it the night before, but it turned out great. I think I would like to try it with corned beef or pastrami next. Add a dash or too of hot sauce to giveit a little kick, or maybe some garlic and onion for another variation. The variety you can add is almost endless!

One of my favorite appetizers that I hate to make because of all the work, thanks for being brilliant enough to come up with an easier variation!
