Greetings from Philadelphia and behold the Great Cheesesteak....

Ok this is what I do when I make Cheesesteaks:

PER SANDWICH!!!

- Roughly 6 slices of thinly sliced Boneless Ribeye Steak
- One buttered & lightly toasted Poor Boy Roll
- 1/4 to 1/2 thinly sliced onion (optional)
- 1/4 to 1/2 thinly sliced sweet/bell peppers (optional)
- Cheese (make sure it melts well) Traditional examples would be cheddar, provolone or even Cheez Whiz.
- Salt & Black Pepper to taste


Ok either see if the local butcher can slice down the steak for you or if you happen to own a deli slicer then you can slice your own. Make sure to slice as thin as possible. The thin slices is the reason why this sandwich doesn't take long to cook.

Heat up a griddle or fry pan on medium-high heat, add some oil, saute the onions & peppers until everything starts to turn brown and get soft or caramalize. Remove onions & peppers and set aside. Now add the steak to the pan and saute for roughly one to two minutes until done. Add salt & pepper to taste if you wish at this time.

After the steak is cooked, return the onions & peppers to the pan to heat through, arrange all ingredients together and top with cheese. Cover with a lid so the cheese can melt. Remove the lid and place the meat on the roll. Top with ketchup or whatever else you like and serve with some chips!!


Chicken Cheesesteak:

Replace the steak with thinly sliced chicken breast and follow the directions above.


Veggie/Vegan Cheesesteak:

Replace the steak with flavored seitan and replace the cheese with a non diary version or leave out all together. Then follow the directions above.



Enjoy everyone.

 

I am so aroused right now.

 

Shut up Joe!!

 

I love it when you talk dirty.

Tell me more about the bell peppers and cheese.

WAIT! Tell me SLOWLY.

 

Hey sweetie why not just swing by my place and I'll just do it nice and slow for you instead.....

 

God I SOOOOOOOOOOOO want one of these now.

 

Ooooooooooh, baby!

I'm sooooo going to be making some of these!

 

Awwww....I got a hug!!!


Just thought this will get you through until you folks get over here and then we'll have to get some real Philly Cheesesteaks in you! lol


Now Joe brought up Scrample...we could freeze the package and ship it overnight if it will go through customs. If we're were going to do that we would have to also send a pork roll and a case of Tastykakes as well.

 

Well, there goes my diet!

 

Diets pah !

 

Hey better you all get to eat this then me!!

 

That's easy for you to say, you're thin! I'm a tubby bugger, remember!

 

People like you really piss me off

 

WTF is scrample?

I LOVE scrapple. MMMmmmmmmmmm!
Habbersett's is the best.

 

How did I misspell that!?!

Well at least I have my spelling bee right here right Joe!?!

 

Hey ! Like I'm Twiggy! nah , its just better to be who I am than to have a diet rule my life like some shallow bimbos do.

 

Well until my weight falls into a healthier range, I'll be ruled by a diet!

 

I have to say that's quite an enlightened attitude, although I want to be thin so I look good in clothes, and well, the ladies don't go for the short dumpy blokes!

 

That said I'm glad I live alone so know one sees me on the days when Ive been through every item in the wardrobe, discovered I'm too big for everything and slump to the floor crying, blowing snot bubbles out my nose!

 

\\pats Verity awkwardly on the shoulder

There, there...

 

I feel your pain V!!


Actually I just want to slim down and make a Batgirl costume to wear to Dragon Con, that's my goal and I'm sticking to it!

 

Well, I'm trying to get myself trim enough that I can pull of the full John Crichton costume from Farscape.

Leather Pants, Skin-tight Black T-Shirt, Leather Vest, Leather Coat, Heavy Boots.

 

Hey at least you have a goal so just keep your eye on the prize!!

 

I'd like to go for the Brad Pitt, Tyler Durden look. I've got the hair and the beard already...Got a looooooong way to go to get the body though.
