BBQ Roast Beef Nachos

Everything about these nachos sounds good!  They looked good too as Jeff Mauro prepared them on my new favorite cooking show, The Kitchen on The Food Network.  The whole thing came together very quickly with the help of a trip to your local deli.

Check out the link for the show episode which includes other recipes and great tips from that episode.
