Classic Cheesesteak

Ingredients

This recipe uses a mix of provolone and American cheese for a more complex flavor. We also add a touch of garlic powder to the meat for extra depth.

Tips & Tricks

• Use a cast iron skillet for the best sear on the meat.
• Don't overcook the steak - it should be browned on the outside but still pink in the middle.
• If you can't find hoagie rolls, you can use any soft, long roll.

Serving advice

Serve hot, with plenty of napkins!
