NOTES:

You can make this Philly Cheese Steak Cheesy Bread to suit your tastes, here are a few more options:

  • The recipe calls for Provolone, but you can use any cheese you prefer. Just don’t use Cheez Whiz in this recipe, it won’t cook as well on high heat.
  • The more tender the cut of meat the better your end product will be. I use Ribeye, skirt steak would also work really well. Just avoid really tough cuts of meat or you’ll end up with very chewy pieces of meat.
  • The mayonnaise on the bread adds a lot of flavor and helps the end product stay moist and creamy, I would not skip it.
