Philly Cheesesteak Joe
One of our favorite sandwiches is the classic Philly Cheesesteak. The tender steak and dripping cheese combine in a total mess of irresistible perfection. Having patronized both Geno's and Pat's in South Philly, our bar for the cheesesteak is high.
In honor of Cheesesteak Day today, we decided to use 1 Source ground beef to pay tribute to this classic sandwich. Since 1 Source is steak, using it in this easy ground beef recipe ensured no sacrifice in quality or flavor.
Once our ground beef, peppers and onions had a chance to mingle in the skillet, we stirred in a bit of cream cheese to make sure we had a cheesy, creamy mix of proper reverence. (Tip: use whipped cream cheese, which incorporates more easily than the block.) A slice of American cheese was the perfect finishing touch. We suggest serving these Joes on a hearty bun. We chose a slightly sweet challah roll from our neighbors at Stone Mill Bread Company.
