Equipment

  • Mandoline slicer
  • Large griddle
  • Flat grill spatula

Ingredients
  

Beef Marinade

  • ½ tablespoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
  • ½ tablespoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs beef partially frozen bottom round roast
  • 1 onion
  • 6 footlong bread rolls
  • 10 slices provolone cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Thinly shave partially frozen beef, using a mandoline slicer.
  • Add the beef marinade to the shavings and let it sit for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the griddle over high heat and dice the onions.

Cooking

  • Sautee the onions in 1 tablespoon of oil just until it chars (1 minute). Remove onions with a long grill spatula and set aside.
  • Slice the bread rolls ¾ through and place face down onto the same hot griddle. Toast for 15-30 seconds and set toasted bread aside onto a large tray.
  • Drain the beef from the marinade (do not wash) and cook in 3 tablespoon of oil over high heat until the foam evaporates and the meat is thoroughly cooked and nicely browned (about 10 minutes).
  • Turn off the heat and arrange the beef into six portions. Top with cheese and allow it to sit until the cheeses melt (1-2 minutes).
  • Scoop Philly cheesesteaks into the toasted bread rolls and top with the onions. Serve with ketchup or horseradish sauce.

Notes

For Easy Slicing: thaw frozen steak for 1-2 hours before slicing, or freeze thawed beef for 30-40 minutes until semi-solid. Homemade Subway Bread Recipe can be used by omitting the Italian Herb and Cheese topping.
