Use rib-eyes sliced very thin. No Fat. Make a cheese sauce using about a pint of half and half. While slowly heating it stir in a cup of shredded provolone and a cup shredded mozzarella being careful not to let the cheese break. Assemble the sandwich ( I like sauteed peppers and shroons also ) and spoon on a liberal slathering of the sauce. MMMMMMMM Good.
Good Philly cheese steaks are made from shaved ribeye and either thinly sliced provolone or Cheese Whiz. I much prefer provolone over Cheese Whiz.
From someone who grew up near Philly, the above statement is true. To each his own but I prefer provolone and some red sauce too. The ones you get at Subway or Shoney's are NOT Philly cheese steaks!
try making them from deer meat that has been run thru a cuber,just thaw half way then slice it real thin. when you cook it ,it all falls apart. i like good carmalized onions and orange peppers seasoned with garlic and a shake of soy sause.i will once in a while eat them on hotdog buns .
Just to throw another twist at you a local place here does a cheesesteak i really like, but i found the provolone lacking. Couple of years ago i asked them to skip the provolone and throw queso on it. Been a hive hit with everyone i know.
