Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 8 oz thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin beef

Vegetables

  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 medium bell pepper, chopped

Dairy

  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • Butter or oil, for sautéing (about 1-2 tbsp)

Sauces & Condiments

  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Bread

  • 4 soft sandwich buns

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Slice your beef thinly and chop the onions and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces. Preparing these ahead ensures a smooth and quick cooking process.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onions and bell peppers, cooking until they are softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes, to bring out their natural sweetness.
  3. Cook the Beef: Push the sautéed vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the thinly sliced steak. Cook, stirring frequently, until the beef is browned and just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes, to retain tenderness.
  4. Make the Sloppy Joe Sauce: Stir ketchup and Worcestershire sauce into the beef and vegetable mixture. Mix well and let it simmer for a few minutes to slightly thicken and enhance the combined flavors.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Layer provolone slices over the skillet mixture. Cover briefly with a lid to allow the cheese to melt evenly over the hot ingredients.
  6. Assemble Your Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes: Spoon the cheesy meat and vegetable mixture onto the soft sandwich buns. Serve hot and enjoy the rich, melty flavors.

Notes

  • Use quality thinly sliced ribeye for more tender and flavorful beef.
  • Do not overcook the steak; cook until just browned to avoid toughness.
  • Preparing all ingredients beforehand speeds up the cooking process.
  • Sauté onions and peppers slowly over medium heat to enhance their sweetness.
  • Lightly butter and toast buns for added crunch and flavor contrast.
