Philly Cheese Steak
Hearty, cheesy, and unapologetically indulgent, the Philly Cheese Steak is an American classic — a beloved sandwich that brings together thinly sliced beef, caramelized onions, and gooey melted cheese all tucked into a warm, soft hoagie roll. Originating from the streets of Philadelphia, this iconic sub is all about bold, savory flavor and satisfying comfort.
The star of the show is thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak, seasoned simply with salt and pepper, then cooked quickly on a hot griddle until tender and juicy. While the beef sizzles, sliced onions — and often bell peppers or mushrooms — are sautéed alongside until soft and sweet, soaking up the flavorful beef drippings.
To make it truly authentic, a generous layer of cheese — usually provolone, American cheese, or classic Cheez Whiz — is melted right over the hot steak and veggies, creating a creamy, savory blanket that binds it all together.
Everything is then loaded into a freshly baked, soft yet sturdy hoagie roll that soaks up the juices without falling apart. Some variations add a smear of mayo, a dash of hot sauce, or extra sautéed peppers for an extra punch of flavor.
Served hot and melty, the Philly Cheese Steak is the ultimate comfort sandwich — messy, satisfying, and full of bold, meaty goodness in every bite.
