In reply to Hank Cusanek. You can also add lettuce and tomato to make a cheese steak hoagie( called subs in other cities)

In reply to Katie. It is called a pizza steak in philly, and it's great. The trick is to toast the roll and use not too much sauce. Typically the cheese is mozzarella when one does this.

Secret from someone that worked as a teen in a Philly cheese steak shop. You are missing the Philly italian spice mix most places use.

salt, garlic, pepper, basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme and marjoram

Be very generous with it while cooking the meat, and use some more some for garnish on the final sandwich.

In reply to Hank Cusanek. A red sauce with cheese steaks are a tradition just north of Philly in the Lehigh Valley. It's not quite a marinara sauce, though. It's closer to a tomato sauce used with a sausage sandwich (ours never had garlic or basil in it growing up). You can buy from a brand called Tallarico's, which is pretty close to what you get in restaurants.

The meat is dead on. Light Olive Oil rather than butter which will burn. The peppers are a South Philly addition and are acceptable if you like it that way. The cheese should never be anything but sliced square white American applied to the top of the meat and onions and allowed to melt prior to assembling the sandwich. Plus, any Philly Cheesesteak worth its salt comes with Marinara Sauce slathered into the sandwich after it is assembled. Rolls from Amoroso’s Bakery in Philadelphia are preferred, but French Bread is a good substitute due to the crusty exterior.

In reply to Bridgett. Bridgett, you could definitely make the filling the day before! I just wouldn't add it to the buns until you're ready to eat because you don't want them to get soggy. :)

Do you think I can make these the day before and wrap them in foil to bake the next day? Might have to increase the time I am guessing.
