Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Vegetables

  • 2 pounds beef sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 bell peppers, thinly sliced (choose your favorite colors)
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Liquids and Seasonings

  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Bread and Cheese

  • 68 hoagie rolls
  • 1216 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Thinly slice the beef sirloin steak, bell peppers, and onion. Mince the garlic to get ready for layering in the slow cooker.
  2. Season the Beef: Season the sliced beef with salt and pepper evenly to enhance flavor throughout cooking.
  3. Layer the Crockpot: Place half of the sliced bell peppers and onions in the bottom of the crockpot. Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly on top to infuse flavor.
  4. Add the Beef: Lay the seasoned beef slices over the bed of peppers, onions, and garlic, distributing it evenly for consistent cooking.
  5. Pour in the Sauce: Combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce in a bowl, then pour this mixture over the beef to keep it moist and flavorful during cooking.
  6. Cook on Low: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours until the beef is tender and thoroughly cooked, allowing flavors to meld beautifully.
  7. Assemble the Sandwiches: Once the beef is ready, preheat your oven’s broiler. Slice the hoagie rolls in half and arrange them on a baking sheet. Top each roll with a generous portion of the beef mixture followed by 2 slices of provolone cheese.
  8. Broil the Sandwiches: Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and starts to bubble, creating a delicious melty topping.
  9. Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the oven carefully. Serve hot to enjoy the perfect balance of tender beef and melted cheese on a hearty roll.
  10. Enjoy: These Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches pair wonderfully with sides like potato chips, French fries, or a fresh side salad for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For best results, slice the beef sirloin as thin as possible to ensure tenderness.
  • You can customize bell pepper colors to brighten up the dish visually and add different flavor notes.
  • If you prefer a spicier version, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce when layering the vegetables.
  • Soft hoagie rolls or sub rolls work best for easy assembly and eating.
  • Cheese options can be varied; mozzarella or American cheese can be substituted if preferred.
  • Leftover beef mixture can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated for another quick meal.
