Philly Cheese Steak

To the woman in Eureka, IL wanting Philly
Cheese steak recipes.

Since my hubby is from Philly I had to know
how to make yummy cheese steaks.
Here are some tips I learned:

Start with good beef, like sliced rib-eye.

Shave the beef very thin so it cooks quickly and
remains tender.

Use a fresh high quality Italian roll.

Use saut?d onions & peppers, and mushrooms
(if desired). Make sure to season these with
salt & pepper.

Some of the popular Philly cheese steaks have
American cheese, provolone or the Philly
favorite "cheez whiz."

Fry your rib-eye until brown but not crispy or
burned. Make sure to season your beef with
salt & pepper and maybe some garlic powder.
Once cooked add in the saut?d veggies.

If you elect American cheese or provolone
place the cheese on the meat until slightly
melted. If you choose Cheez Whiz just
smear it on the roll.

Place the roll over the meat/cheese/vegetables
and scoop it into the sandwich.

Garnish with whatever you fancy:
pizza sauce, hot or sweet
peppers or pickles as you choose. I like
mine plain or with extra cheese.
