Easy Philly Cheesesteak Recipe (The Ultimate Guide) (2024)

I will confess my mistake so others won’t do what I did. I followed the recipe except I think my package of shaved rib eye had quite a bit more than the recipe called for. I used the whole package without making sure of the weight. Consequently, it was so dry it wouldn’t stick together enough to stay in the sandwich, even with the right amount of provolone. My fault. I will try again because the flavor was good and the recipe is easy.

I really REALLY wanted to love this. I got shaved steak from my grocer and omitted the mushrooms as I just don’t like them. Somehow it was just plain wrong. It was okay to eat but it wasn’t as wonderful as it seems here. I used 14oz of shaved steak, a large onion and one onion. I was halving the recipe. I used almost a whole 8oz pack of provolone and it just wasn’t good. I don’t know what I did wrong.

Trying this tonight since I had a flank steak I didn't know wtf to do with - the steak marinated for about 4 hours in Jack Daniel's Whiskey BBQ sauce (I was preparing for something else I scrapped since I didn't have all the ingredients) so I will update on how this is with that BBQ sauce if anyone wants a little kick (I'll be the guinea pig in case it sucks)

-I WAS NEVER WAS SHOWN HOW TO COOK SAID I WASN'T ABLE TO LEARN- BULL- I LEARNING NOW AND WITH EASY RECIPE IT REALY HELP, THINK FOR GIVING PEOPLE LIKE ME- EASY RECIPE, MY FAMILY IS HAPPY THAT I COOKING NOW

very nice to watch

Can I prepare the entire mixture and freeze it for later use?

Pretty close to how I make them. I use a green and a red pepper. I went back and didn't see mayo another commentor mentioned but my husband loves mayo on the hoagie. I'm just a plain hoagie kind of gal. The cheese is enough for me. Simple solution... I put mayo on his hoagie and I don't put it on mine. Thanks for posting.. they were pretty intimidating when I first started trying to make them. Now my problem is I want to overstuff the hoagie but that's why God made forks. Yummy

My husband and I loved them so much last week we are having them again tonight. Followed your recipe which is quick and easy 👍🏼 Thanks for sharing.

You lost me at Mayo. There is just no way. If you want sauce on the cheesesteak, it's a red sauce, something like a marinara.

The best Philly cheese steak I ever had at a restaurant was made with skirt steak.

Philly cheese steaks I grew up with in Allentown, PA had a spaghetti type sauce on top then the cheese. Miss them so much but will give this a try.
Thanks

How long do you cook rib eye strips for?

Made this for our lunch My husband loved it I added small amount of bacon .Thank you Love your recipes Juststarted following you👏🏻👏🏻🇨🇦

Hi! This looks absolutely delicious I will hopefully make this soon. About How many provolone slices is 1 pound?

I’ve made these a few time I do everything you do but I make my own bbq sauce add it to the meat once cook then I make my own garlic sauce and after I put the meat in bun I top it with my garlic sauce it’s a hit everyone loves it

I'm a new follower to your cooking show/web site, so far I am pleased with the content, you keep it simple and easy. I don't always have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen cooking so these easy recipe's are a great fit for my life.
Thank you,

Philly Cheesesteaks are a great way to use up a leftover beef roast. Slice it up nice and thin. I start sauteing the peppers first. About halfway through, I add the onions. Once those are nearing doneness, add the meat. Get the meat cooked, then the cheese. Mix it all up til the cheese is melted and everything is covered. Throw it on a roll and add some hot sauce. Perfect.

chill the onions overnight ,,,no tears

I have made these for my family many times. My son has also. So simple and delicious. I think they are great as is but my son likes to add granulated garlic to the veggies and that’s good too. I used canned mushrooms and it was still good. Fresh is better. I’ve done them with sirloin tip, London broil, New York steaks and round steak. We always go heavy on the peppers cause we are pepper freaks I suppose. All work great!! Thanks for the great recipe.

I am so excited to find this recipe from you! My husband sold our grill and then realized we had a steak in the freezer - we are moving and I wanted to use everything up!
I am going to make these sandwiches tomorrow, all I need are the rolls.
I plan on taking a picture of them tomorrow! I’ve been watching you on Pinterest! Glad to find this! Susan

I like that you said that a cheesesteak is recognized as one of the best street food. A couple of days ago, my sister informed me that she was planning to try a Philly cheesesteak sandwich for the first time for our family gathering next week, and she asked if I had any idea what would be the best option to do. Thanks to this informative article, I'll be sure to tell her that we can try the cheesesteak sandwich that I know as they have good reviews.

Looks delicious! We are trying them tonight!!

I finally made this philly cheese steak for my brother in law and I it turned out just like the picture showed and instead of provolone i used jack cheese

Good for a quick recipe. I think there should be some added seasonings for the steak because it's quite bland.

I love this recipe! I made it for large party of hockey fans. I bought pre- sliced ribe eye Iin the meat cooler at Publix as suggested by the butcher. Using my iron skillet on the grill, I sauted the mushrooms, onions and green.pepper individually in batches, transferring all to a large deep, heavy casserole pan. Then, I sauted the rib eye. When done all were mixed together. Keeping large pan on the grill, I covered the entire dish with sliced round provolone and closed the grill lid. A few minutes later it was done! Everyone loved it. I had slider buns and people made their own sliders. These were friends from PA and the said it tasted like from back home.

use red, yellow and orange bell peppers and no mushrooms but it turned out great and very filling.

Actually, using a chuck pot roast turns this sandwich into a New Orleans roast beef po' boy if you add a little cornstarch to make gravy.

Looks pretty dam good in picture so TONITE I make your sandwich and looking forward to it

This recipe is delicious. I've made it several times, once for a large family gathering. Cheese steaks in my state are only made with Provolone. I can not imagine anyone using Cheese Whiz or American Cheese which aren't even 50% cheese and have enough preservatives to survive the apocalypse. That said, thank you for sharing your recipe and providing good instructions.
