Oooh, these were so yummy! Made as directed, execpt that I drizzled just a tiny bit of olive oil (extra virgin, of course) over the bread and toasted it for a bit in the oven; i like my bread toasted, it withstands the "soggies" better. These are simple to prepare, the only hard part was not sampling while it was cooking, it smells so wonderful! Thanks!

FINALLY!!! I have found a way to make really good Cheese steak sandwiches. The only thing available in Oklahoma are those processed steak-ums. I have tried over and over to make them tast good. This is THE recipe. And it is so easy!! I had already planned these when a friend stopped by who loves steak sandwiches. He thought they were delicious and asked how to do them so he could tell his wife. The only thing I did differently was to use some Cavendars Greek seasoning in the meat. I used sub sandwich buns, which were lightly buttered and then wrapped in foil and placed in the oven to warm. We also did not use any optional topping as these were too good without.

My family just loves these savory & delicious Philly Cheese Steaks! The recipe makes enough for three hoagie-sized sandwiches which I like to serve on freshly baked Crusty Rolls #97096. We've opted to skip any toppings in addition to about 1/3 pound provolone cheese ~ This sandwich is so good that it doesn't need anything more!

Alan, I'm glad that you recommend provolone cheese. The famous Pat's Steak in South Philadelphia uses cheese-wiz out of a pourable bottle and in my opinion it is pretty disgusting. Thanks. Phil

Except for using a pan due to lack of griddle, I followed this to the letter, and all I can say is *slurp.* Comfort food at it's finest! The phrase "comfort food" really sells it short, though. Thank you so much for sharing the real Philly with us. This is a gorgeous sandwich.

This had a great flavor. It comes out a little on the dry side the next day as leftovers. If there's enough, I recommend an Au Jusce sauce.

This brings back memories for me. Growing up we didn't have alot of money so on the rare occasion when my parents took all 5 kids out for a meal, we would go to a lunch counter where we would order this sandwich with a plate of fries and gravy. Tonight, my kids got to enjoy it too and we all absolutely loved it. Thanks so much Alan!

Yo, Alan, thnx for posting the "real" thing! Processed cheese "stuff", YUCK. To walk into a little Mom and Pop shop and see the mounds of steak and onions on the grill was heaven! I'm talking, of course, in PA. Lived in Allentown in the early 50's growing up. And what was better to go with than a good pierogi! Thnx, thnx, thnx for posting, Alan.
