This cheesesteak, an iconic sandwich in Philly, is a bestseller at Pat's King of Steaks restaurant. Patrons praise its thinly cut beef and crusty Italian rolls. —Frank Olivieri, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

onion,

mushrooms,

green pepper, sliced, optional

In a large skillet, saute onion and, if desired, mushrooms and peppers in 3 tablespoons oil until tender. Remove and keep warm. In same pan, saute beef in remaining oil in batches for 45-60 seconds or until meat reaches desired doneness.

On each roll bottom, layer beef, onion mixture, cheese and, if desired, ketchup. Replace tops.

Philadelphians grow up eating steak sandwiches and will argue  with anyone at any time about which best "steak joint" is best. It's usually the one at the end of the block in your old neighborhood, and that's probably not Pat's. I like that this recipe uses ribeye. Try to semi-freeze it before slicing so you can get very thin slices across the grain with a sharp knife or meat slicer. Another ongoing argument is whether to shred the beef while cooking or leave it in slices - suggest you do what tastes best to you. Forget the process "cheese" ugh and place some provolone, mozzarella, pepper jack or American cheese slices atop the steak when it's almost done before you scoop it onto the roll. For a true local specialty try a pizza steak: after assembling your sandwich, drizzle a couple of tablespoons of warm pizza sauce or marianara along the steak, top with mozzarella or provolone and run under the broiler for a minute to toast.

My favorite are Philly's. This was awesome. I do like to use provolone cheese sometimes to change things up and I leave out the mushrooms.

This recipe was easy and delicious.  I semi froze my meat before cutting it. Only change I made was to add a little salt and pepper. I will make thus again.

Easy to  make.  My family  loved them.  Will make again.
