Ingredients
  

  • 3 hoagie-style 3 rolls, approximately 9" in length Amoroso rolls are highly recommended
  • 24 oz. of thinly sliced ribeye
  • Diced onions optional
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Cheese Options (Choose One):
  • 3 slices of American cheese per sandwich
  • 3 slices of provolone cheese per sandwich
  • Cheez Whiz
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder for added flavor
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce for a savory depth

Method
 

Step 1: Prepare the Grill
  1. If you have a Blackstone grill, preheat it to medium-high heat. This step is crucial as it helps in achieving that perfect sear on the meat. If you’re using a regular skillet, make sure it’s well-heated before you start cooking.
Step 2: Cook the Onions
  1. Add a drizzle of oil to the grill. If you choose to include onions, throw them on first. Cook until they’re caramelized and golden brown. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes. Stir them occasionally. They should be sweet and soft when finished.
Step 3: Sear the Ribeye
  1. Once the onions are done, push them to one side of the grill. Spread the thinly sliced ribeye on the other side. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle in the garlic powder. Stir gently to combine. Cook for about 5 minutes or until it's no longer pink but juicy and tender.
Step 4: Add the Cheese
  1. As soon as the meat is cooked, lay your cheese slices over the ribeye. Let them melt beautifully, which typically takes around 2 minutes. If you're using Cheez Whiz, pour it directly over the meat.
Step 5: Toast the Rolls
  1. While the cheese is melting, slice the hoagie rolls down the middle. Lay them cut side down on the grill to toast for about 1-2 minutes until they have a golden-brown color. This step adds a delightful crunch.
Step 6: Assemble the Sandwiches
  1. Once everything is ready, it’s assembly time! Use a spatula to scoop the cheesy ribeye mix onto the toasted hoagie rolls. If you cooked onions, pile those on top. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Choose the Right Roll: For the best flavor, opt for a fresh, quality hoagie roll. It makes all the difference.
  • Control the Heat: Watch the grill temperature closely. Too hot can burn the meat, and too low won’t sear well.
  • Keep It Simple: You can customize your cheesesteak. Try jalapeños for some heat or mushrooms for earthiness.
  • Meal Prep: Slice ribeye ahead of time and store it in the fridge for an easy-to-make meal on busy nights.
  • Cleanup: Use a grill scraper immediately after cooking to make cleaning easier. Keep that grill in top-notch condition!
