INGREDIENTS:

2 lbs. boneless beef rib-eye steaks, strip loin or top round, thinly sliced
4 soft Hoagie rolls, 3/4 sliced or loaf of Italian or French bread (Amoroso) rolls if you can find them)
1 large Vidalia or White sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 medium Red Onion, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional red, yellow and orange bell peppers for more color)
1 lb. mushrooms, Baby Bella, Shitake or Portabella, coarsely chopped (optional)
Freshly ground black peppercorns - to taste (Tellicherry)
3 tablespoons salted or unsalted butter
1/2 lb. Provolone cheese, thin sliced
2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
Red Pepper flakes (optional)
1 teaspoon Wild Bill's Meat Rub
1/2 teaspoon Sauer's Meat Tenderizer
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Kosher or Sea Salt

Place steaks in freezer for about 2 hours; remove from freezer and slice very thin about 1/16 inch thick or paper thin.  Place sliced steak on pan and lightly sprinkle meat tenderizer and Wild Bill's Meat Rub on both sides and allow to rest for 30 minutes.

Place large skillet on medium heat and brush steak with olive oil, salt and pepper.  Add 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire Sauce and 1 tablespoon of butter to skillet and cook steak about one minute each side and set aside keeping warm.

Place a large skillet on medium high heat and add 3 tablespoons of butter and 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil;  add mushrooms, onions and green bell pepper, salt, red pepper flakes (optional), 1/2 teaspoon Wild Bill's Meat Rub and fresh ground black pepper corns and sauté about 10 minutes on high heat until veggies are tender.  If using a flattop grill to prepare the meat and veggies or two large 13 inch skillets, you can chop the meat into smaller pieces; mix the meat, onions, mushrooms,  bell pepper together and top with cheese slices and/or Cheez Whiz.   When cheese has melted, place Hoagie roll on top of mixture and scoop from grill and/or large skillet with a long bladed spatula and close Hoagie roll. 

OPTIONS:  You can substitute deli-roast beef, very rare and thinly sliced but if you want it Authentic, use the frozen rib eye or top round steak sliced paper thin.  Production Delis and sandwich shops now use Cheez Whiz and it must work for them but the Provolone is original.

YIELD:  4 to 6

The above Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich prepared on 08-02-14 and used three (3) different colors of bell peppers, coarse sliced the veggie medley and loin strap for more eye appeal.  The sandwich was "off the chain good" with wonderful flavor and texture and slathered the warm melted Cheez Whiz on pretty heavy!  I used venison loin strap instead of beef.

The Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich is among the top 5 US sandwiches for certain with the "Poa" Boy sandwich being at the top by many food critics.  The Sloppy Joe, Reuben and Grilled Cheese are right there with them as well.  For a history of this famous sandwich, visit this link.

I did the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches on 06-30-12 and slathered some Cheez Whiz on each side of the Hoagie roll of which the Cheez Whiz did not clash with the Provolone melted cheese slices.  I was very impressed with the taste and the seasoning was basically salt, black pepper, butter and Extra Virgin Olive Oil.   About the only places you will find the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich in our little town is when we have some type of large outdoor Fall Festival and vendors from different parts of the country will come in and set their concession stands up and many times there has been a vendor specializing in Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches but theirs tend to be greasy, meat is too tough and/or dry and offer a production product.   My Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches today were way ahead of what I have consumed around these parts.  I know, it might be bragging, but "It is a poor frog that want croak on his own pond".
