I almost never do it - but it's good to freeze it a little so you can cut it as thin as possible. But yeah, thin is best. True. Back in my teen years working at a local pizza/sub joint, we’d get the whole ribeye frozen from the vendor and put it in the carriage of the Hobart commercial slicer, slice it thin, stack it up proportionately between deli paper, and have it ready to cook and chop on the flat top grill. Sprinkled with a bit of garlic salt, pepper, onions&bell pepper, chopped, topped with cheese to melt over, and tucked into those great rolls. I’d put those local Buffalo steak subs on toasted Costanzo sub rolls against anything Philly could offer. Great-just made myself hungry! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genos, Pats, Mike Schmidts, Jimmy's yada yada I have tried every Philly cheesesteak hotspot. Cheese wiz is garbage. Allentown uses real cheese, and sometimes a little sauce. The Brass Rail (RIP) used to make a cheese steak omelette that was divine. One of best cheesesteaks I ever had was Augies in Reading. If you want a good hot dog, get to Yaccos. Bro, I lived there 25 years. Been to brass rail, been to zandys, been to yoccos both for dogs and steaks, been to all kinds of mom and pop cheesesteak places, it's just not true. 5 hours ago, Low Positive said: I don't know about Johns, but DiNics is the best thing that I have ever eaten. It has all the flavors that a human tongue can experience in one sandwich. I was at a conference at the convention center, and I was told by a local to go across the street and get the sandwich. I ate nothing else but that and Tomato pie for three days. I took my family on a detour on a vacation to NYC from Cincinnati just to get another sandwich. It's worth the 8-hour drive from Cincinnati to Philly just to get one. It's that good. John's is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVGrown Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Only read the first page so apologies if already mentioned. Costco sells pre-sliced ribeye for sandwiches. Saves a little time of not having to slice it up. As some have mentioned the bread is critical. Sautéed onions, mushrooms and either Provolone or white cheddar cheese. Secret ingredient is the Blackstone. 🤫 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Don't forget the pork & greens sandwich is also a Philly tradition. https://thewoksoflife.com/italian-pork-sandwich-philly/ As for cheese steaks, when I make them you grill shaved steak with onions and mushrooms. Then you add the secret ingredient: a squirt or two of ketchup! Mix it in and let the sizzle a bit. Then form a pile with your meat and lay some cheese over it. I like American or Cheddar best. Split your sub roll, place it over the meat and cheese pile and let it melt into the roll. Scoop it into the roll and enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what I would order at genos in Philly would be called a "peppersteak wiz wit" so that's peppers, onions and cheese with the steak..... Basically get some good soft foot long bakery hoagies, get good grass fed Angus thin sliced beef, the cheese is literally cheese whiz, cook the steak with butter and onions and peppers diced, put the steak and onions and peppers slightly chopped on top of the open faced hoagie and then add the cheese sauce over the top of it so it all melts together and close it up and eat it 😋 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art's Hoagie Hut (Hertel and Colvin, mid to late 70s) made dynamite hoagies and subs, until Art's passing. It was Art's solo venture after leaving Artone's in South Buffalo, which was founded by brothers Art and Tony. I do not know if the current Artone's remains in the family.

This is what I am going to do, I had one while in Philly from the Reading Market and that was better than any of the cheesesteaks I had. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make hot and sour soup based on their recipe, and when I gave some of that soup to some of my friends who are from China, they said it was authentic and outstanding. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheddar and swiss blend is our favorite. Mayo on the toasted roll We also add spinach to the mix, again cooked right in with everything Thinly sliced rib eye, peppers, onions and topped with cheese whiz is the way ala Pats style 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I like a mix of cheese whiz and better deli American cheese. Ta hell with folks who put other types of cheeses like provolone or mozz in Philly. Breakaway beef, large white hoagie, mushrooms, onions ( no peppers) .

But we have a Blackstone and we do love a good steak, so I'm excited to try the ribeye recipe this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork with provolone and broccoli rabe is a classic in the city. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
