Notes
Chef Jenn's Tips
Use a high-quality ground beef for the best flavor. The 80/20 blend provides just the right amount of fat to keep the meat juicy and flavorful.
Don’t rush the vegetable sautéing process. Allowing the vegetables to caramelize adds a deeper flavor to the sandwich.
If you prefer a spicier kick, you can sprinkle in a bit of crushed red pepper flakes when adding the cheese.
For a more traditional Philly cheesesteak experience, serve the sandwiches with a side of pickled hot peppers.
