THAT GOOD BEEFY BEEF RIB EYE KICK IT UP A NOTCH PHILLY CHEESESTEAK WITH ONIONS PEPS MUSHROOMS AND THE HOT WHIZZ DRIZZ ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS THE DRIZZLE WE’RE COOKIN’ SOMETHIN’
INGREDIENTS
Ribeye roast, 2 bones worth (about 6” or 4lbs) 6 Button Mushrooms
2 Bell Peppers
2 White Onions
1⁄4 cup Milk
2 cups Cheez Wiz
8 Cherry Bomba Peppers
4 Footlong Hoagie Buns
Canola Oil
Salt
Pepper
METHOD
1. Take the ribeye and trim fatcap and connective tissue off the outside, leaving the big
piece of meat in the centre. Put it in the freezer for about 30 min, or until firm enough to
slice in 1⁄4” thin slices. Save your trimmings for stewing.
2. While the ribeye is cooling, peel the button mushrooms and then chop the stems and
tops into 1cm cubes. In about 2tbsps canola oil, add a pinch of salt and fresh cracked pepper, sautee on med-high heat until they release their water and get a bit crispy around the edges, about ten minutes. This should yield about one cup. Remember that all your vegetables should be cut to the same size! Set aside.
3. Cut bell peppers in half, and remove the seeds. Wipe out the mushroom pan and heat tbsp oil. Dice peppers into 1cm pieces and sautee with salt and pepper on medium-high heat until the peppers are a little charred and soften, it should take about 3 minutes. Remove from your pan, then dice and cook your white onions in a little more oil, adding about 1 tsp salt and reducing the heat to medium. Be sure to stir your onions often and cook until translucent and lightly brown, about 10 minutes. This should yield about one cup.
4. Prepare your cheese sauce: in a saucepan on low-medium heat, combine milk and Cheez Wiz, stir until warmed enough to pour easily. Set aside for finishing
5. By the time you have prepared all of your sides, your ribeye should be ready to slice. Remove from the freezer, and using a very sharp cleaver, slice into very thin (1/8”-1/4” slices). Don’t worry if they aren’t perfect slices, it gets chopped up on your skillet.
6. Bring a large cast iron skillet to high heat with a splash of oil, until it start to smoke. Add your sliced beef, salt and pepper.
7. Take two metal spatulas and stir your meat frequently, using the edges of the spatula to chop up the meat as it cooks. When the meat starts to brown after a few minutes, add a quarter of each of your mushrooms, peppers, and onions, and continue to chop and stir until completely cooked through.
8. Then, add a drizzle of cheese sauce into the pan to moisten.
9. Take your footlong roll and cut in half, lay on top of the meat to slightly steam and warm
up. Let it sit for a few minutes.
10. Flip your roll over, then load the middle with your meat filling, then coat with cheese
sauce.
11. Squeeze the juices of your cherry peppers over your sandwich then tear up cherry
peppers and add to your sandwich filling to finish. Enjoy

Matty at first I was skeptical because I have seen so many failed attempts but you hit the nail on the damn head with this one brother. You started with saying Geno’s was your favorite and that hurt my feeling but coming from a family members of one of Phillys top cheesesteak places, Dalessandro’s, you hit it out of the park. Next time your in town hit up Dalessandro’s, you will not be disappointed

[@theEarlofChip]

Dalessandro's is so good, I had it so many times when I lived in Germantown. I have fond memories of sitting at the bar and tearing up as they chop onions 5 feet away! Can't expect visitors to make it out to Roxborough though, not much there for them. That's probably good in a way, allows Dalessandro's to stay pure.

I'm of the opinion that peeling your mushrooms is a waste of time. Whenever I'm making anything with cremini mushrooms, my girlfriend insists that I peel them instead of rinsing them. I say that's completely pointless because mushrooms are like 80 percent water anyway, and any of it soaked up in the rinsing process is gonna get cooked off. Mushroom experts, help me out, here.

[@kindablue1959]

The amount of water in a mushroom comes from a natural balance by design. Adding more can make the cell walls break, especially the gill areas, and you lose the snappy texture. His point of cooking at high heat is so that the exterior water is boiled off as quickly as possible so the browning can start. Some people do a quick rinse/splash just to get off any surface dirt, some wipe with a damp rag. Definitely don't put them in a bowl of water to soak/wash.
