Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, finely diced
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup beef broth
- ¼ cup A.1. Sauce
- 1 teaspoon steak seasoning
- Sliced provolone cheese
- Hamburger buns, slider buns, etc.
How To Make Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes
Step 1: Cook the Meat and Vegetables
- In a skillet pan over medium-high heat, cook and crumble the ground beef, onion, green pepper, and salt until the beef is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
Step 2: Thicken the Mixture
- Stir the cornstarch into the cooked ground beef mixture until the meat is evenly coated.
- Add the beef broth, A.1. sauce, and steak seasoning to the skillet. Stir together and bring to a boil.
Step 3: Simmer
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. The mixture should thicken up and will continue to thicken slightly once off the heat.
Step 4: Prepare the Buns
- While the meat is simmering, set your oven to broil.
- Place the buns on a cookie sheet and butter each one.
- Broil for just a few minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Step 5: Assemble the Sloppy Joes
- Using a slotted spoon, scoop the meat mixture onto the bottom half of each bun.
- Place a slice of provolone cheese on the top half of each bun.
- Broil the cheese-topped buns for a few more minutes until the cheese is melted.
Step 6: Serve
- Place the top bun with the melted cheese onto the bottom bun with the meat mixture.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Serving Size: This recipe yields about 6 servings when using regular hamburger buns. If you use slider buns, it can easily serve 8, making it perfect for feeding a crowd or children.
- Toasting the Buns: Toasting the buns adds a delightful crunch and prevents them from becoming soggy. If you’re short on time, you can skip this step, but it’s highly recommended for the best texture and flavor.
- Authenticity: These Sloppy Joes are not meant to be authentic Philly Cheesesteaks. Instead, they offer a quick, family-friendly, and budget-friendly version of the original.
