**Introducing the Philly Beef and Cheese Sandwich: A Flavorful Fusion of Tender Meat, Cheesy Goodness, and Toasted Bread**

Originating from the vibrant streets of Philadelphia, the Philly beef and cheese sandwich has captured the hearts and taste buds of sandwich enthusiasts worldwide. This iconic dish boasts a harmonious blend of tender sliced beef, melted cheese, and sautéed onions, all nestled within a toasted hoagie roll. The beef, typically thinly sliced ribeye or top round, is seasoned to perfection and cooked until it reaches a mouthwatering tenderness. The melted cheese, often a combination of provolone and American, adds a rich and gooey element that complements the savory beef. The sautéed onions bring a delightful sweetness and crunch to the sandwich, balancing the flavors and adding a textural contrast. Additionally, this article provides three variations of the classic Philly beef and cheese sandwich: a zesty Italian Philly beef sandwich, a hearty and smoky BBQ Philly beef sandwich, and a vegetarian-friendly Philly mushroom and cheese sandwich. Each variation offers a unique twist on the original, catering to diverse preferences and dietary needs.

Time 22m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
2 large yellow skinned onions, sliced very thin
Coarse salt and pepper or steak seasoning blend
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 drizzles
1 1/2 pounds lean beef tenderloin or sirloin, ask butcher to slice the meat very thin
1 teaspoon garlic salt
Freshly ground black pepper
8 slices provolone cheese, from the deli counter
4 soft Italian sandwich hogie rolls, split 6 to 8 inches long each, split lengthwise

Steps:

  • Heat a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan. Add onions and season with salt and pepper or steak seasoning blend. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until onions are soft and caramel in color.
  • Heat a heavy griddle pan over medium high to high heat. Wipe griddle with a drizzle of oil using a paper towel. Sear and cook thin sliced steaks until brown but not crisp, about 2 minutes on each side. Cook steaks in single layers in 2 batches and tenderize by cutting into meat with the side of your spatula while they cook. When the steaks are browned, just before you remove them from heat, sprinkle them with garlic salt and pepper. When all of the steaks are cooked, line each of your split rolls with 2 slices of provolone cheese. Pile 1/4 of your meat and onions on to the griddle and mix together with your spatula. Pile the meat and onions into rolls on top of the cheese. The heat from the meat and onions will melt the cheese. Repeat for remaining servings and serve.

PHILLY CHEESESTEAK SANDWICH (((AUTHENTIC)))



Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich (((Authentic))) image

I was born and raised in Philadelphia and this was my favorite lunch at the luncheonettes (sandwich shops). Places throughout the rest of the Country that claim to make Philly Cheese Steaks just do not get them to taste the same, and one of the reasons is that they do not use extra-virgin olive oil. Anyone who says that Pat's and Gino's in South Philly uses Cheez Wiz, is talking about the way they make it now. The old authentic way uses Provolone Cheese. Also, using deli roast beef is the same as using top round sliced wafer thin or frozen Rib-Eye roast shaved on an electric slicer. I was born in 1942 and this is the way they were made way back then. We are talking about authentic, not the way they are made now. If you make any changes with the ingredients or the directions, it will not be the same. Make it EXACTLY as written here.
