Categories     main-dish

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.

EASY STEAK SANDWICH



Easy Steak Sandwich image

I tried for years to make a cheese steak as good as the takeout sub shops of southeastern Massachusetts. I think this is about as close as you can come at home. Freezing the steak the day before makes it easy to cut into very thin slices.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Beef

Time 25m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
¼ medium onion, sliced
4 large fresh mushrooms, sliced
¼ green bell pepper, sliced into long strips
1 (1/2 pound) well-marbled beef steak of any type, sliced as thinly as possible
3 tablespoons chopped pickled hot peppers
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
2 slices sharp Cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
⅓ French baguette, cut in half lengthwise

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion; cook and stir until tender. Push onion to the side of the pan, and add the mushrooms. Cook and stir until softened, then add the bell pepper and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
  • Add the remaining butter to the skillet. No need to clean the pan, just let it heat up a little bit. Place the steak in the skillet along with the pickled peppers. Season with salt and pepper. The steak cooks really fast, just a couple of minutes. Once the steak is mostly browned, return the onion and pepper to the pan. Cook until heated through.
  • Turn off the heat, and place the slices of cheese over the top of the pile so they can melt. Scoop the whole pile into the awaiting bread, making sure to pour some of the juices onto that wonderful sandwich.

THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES



The Best Roast Beef for Sandwiches image

The best cut of roast beef for sandwiches isn't necessarily the same as what you'd want hot from the oven. A hot roast demands plenty of marbling so that the rich fat can melt and baste the meat with its goodness. Roast beef sandwiches work better made from a leaner cut, preferably one with a mineral, earthy taste and a nice chew. A top loin roast is ideal. It's got plenty of brawny flavor, and all of the fat is on the surface, which you can easily trim off after the meat is cooked. Here, the beef is roasted low and slow to ensure rare, juicy meat. This said, if you want a more economical cut, use bottom, top or eye round here instead. Just adjust the roasting time if the cut is larger or smaller. As long as you pull the meat out of the oven when it reaches between 125 and 130 degrees, you'll get nicely rare meat. More sandwich recipes.

Time 6h45m

Yield 6 to 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 small garlic cloves, grated
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
2 1/2 pounds boneless beef top loin roast (leave the fat on top)
Extra-virgin olive oil, as needed

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
  • Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.

SCREAMING EAGLE CHEESE-STEAK SUB



Screaming Eagle Cheese-Steak Sub image

Every college has one: some kind of nasty-fantastic amalgam of cheese and meat and grease and bread and salt and melting awesomeness. From freshman year to graduation, you can eat these things twice a week and it will hurt you, but not badly - that is the magic of youth and appetite and America combined. After that, such a sandwich must be counted a special treat, and adapted to adult use. For this cheese steak sandwich, a version of the Screaming Eagle served in the dining halls of Boston College, the Jesuit university in Chestnut Hill, Mass., I made two essential changes: I used Cheddar in place of the usual white American the college uses; and I replaced the thin-shaved steak that is a hallmark of cheese steaks the world over with skirt steak. Doing so recalled Corinthians. When you are a child, American cheese and shaved steak can count as ambrosia. As an adult, it's kind of nasty. But skirt steak? Melting Cheddar? That is actually ambrosial. The fiery mayonnaise does the rest.

Categories     sandwiches, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup mayonnaise
3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced, or more to taste
2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil, like canola
1 large white onion, peeled and sliced thin
2 red bell peppers, seeded and sliced thin
1 green bell pepper, seeded and sliced thin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 pound button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced thin
2 1/2 pounds skirt steak, cut into 6 equal-size sections
6 large sub rolls or Italian bread cut into 6 submarine-shaped pieces of 8 to 10 inches, sliced down the center
1/2 pound sharp Cheddar cheese, sliced thin

Steps:

  • To make chipotle mayonnaise: Combine mayonnaise and minced peppers in a small bowl and stir well. (Leftover sauce may be covered and stored safely in the refrigerator for weeks.)
  • To make toppings for sandwich: Heat a griddle or a large, heavy frying pan, ideally cast iron, over medium heat. Add oil to pan and, when it begins to shimmer, add the onion and peppers and stir to combine. Cook, stirring every so often, until they begin to soften and brown, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, remove and set aside. Wipe pan, add butter and repeat process with mushrooms. Cook until they have released their juices and are soft and glazed, about 6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • To make steaks: Heat griddle or frying pan over high heat until nearly smoking. Season meat aggressively with salt and pepper. Place steaks on griddle, working in batches if necessary, and cook for 3 minutes each side, until well browned but very rare. Remove to a serving platter and allow to rest.
  • To make sandwiches: Preheat oven to 200 degrees. When steaks are complete, slice them against the grain as thinly as possible. Place sub rolls in oven to warm. Return sliced steaks to griddle or frying pan, over medium heat, and add onions, peppers and mushrooms. Stir to combine, turn heat to low and cover with sliced cheese. Using tongs and a wide spatula, stir and pull to combine as cheese melts, approximately 3 minutes.
  • To serve: Remove rolls from oven and spread chipotle mayonnaise on the interior of each serving. Fill each sub with a mixture of meat, vegetables and cheese. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: For shaved beef sandwiches, you'll want to use a cut of beef that is tender and flavorful, such as flank steak, skirt steak, or top round roast.

  • Cook the beef quickly over high heat: This will help to keep the beef tender and juicy.
  • Serve the beef on a toasted bun with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for shaved beef sandwiches include cheese, onions, peppers, and barbecue sauce.
