Philly Cheesesteaks

A crowd pleasing sandwich that’s warm, tender, flavorful and delicious!  Perfect for game day or a weekend family dinner.  Comes together easily and much of the time is hands off.  If you’re serving a crowd, this can be easily translated to smaller rolls to make a slider version (check our website for that modified recipe!)

Serves 8

Ingredients:

4 lbs boneless chuck roast, cubed

3 tsp each kosher salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder

2 tsp cumin

1 tsp each black pepper and ground mustard

1 quart broth or stock

3 yellow onions, sliced

4 Tbsp unsalted butter

8 hoagie rolls, sliced

1/2 cup roasted red peppers, cut into strips

8 slices white cheddar cheese

Olive oil

Directions:

Add meat, all seasonings and broth to crock pot.  Cook on high for 5 hours.  Remove from liquid with slotted spoon and shred meat with two forks.  Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.  Melt butter.  Add sliced onions and cook on low for 15-20 minutes or until caramelized.  Stir around frequently while cooking. (Note, if you have time and want an even more decadent version of caramelized onions, visit our website for that recipe!)

Remove the rolls from the package and use a long, sharp knife to cut the rolls in half, lengthwise.

Layer buns, open faced, on baking sheet.  Drizzle inside of top bun with olive oil.

Spread shredded beef on bottom of buns.  Top with caramelized onions and red pepper strips.  Cover with cheese slices.  Keep bun open faced.

Bake in 350 degree oven until cheese is melted.  Serve while warm.
