It is a sandwich made with thinly sliced sautéed rib eye beef and melted cheese in a long, crusty roll.  The top choices of the cheese are Cheez Whiz, American or provolone cheese.  Philly Cheesesteak has a reputation as being a satisfying hearty meal.How to Make Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy JoesTo make the Philly Cheesesteak I used beef, onions, green pepper, provolone and a homemade cheesesteak sauce.Step 1: Brown the Ground Beef and Vegetables.Place a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and coat with oil.  Add the ground beef and break it up to prevent it from clumping. Cook for about 5 minutes until the the beef is no longer pink. Stir in diced onions and green bell pepper. Cooke for about 2 to 3 minutes until the onions are translucent. Drain off any fat that accumulates.Note: A large skillet works better to brown the ground beef when it’s not too crowded. Or you can make two batches if your skillet is not big enough.Step 2: Add Sauce to the Beef MixtureAdd in the beef broth followed by the ketchup, Worchester sauce, salt and pepper. Do a quick taste-test and add more ketchup or salt according to your personal taste. Then in a small bowl or cup, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water, and add to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook for a few minutes until the mixture is thick enough to start forming mounds.Note: Make sure NOT to dry out all the sauce. The best sloppy joes have a thick but moist consistency. So cook your mixture until it’s still has about 10% to 15% liquid.Step 3: Add in the Cheese.The next step is adding the cheese to the pan. This is a good time to start toasting your buns because these sloppy joes are almost ready! Remove your skillet from heat, add cheese and slowly stir it in. The hot mixture will melt your cheese very nicely.Step 4: Assemble Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy JoesButter and toast your buns, and scoop the beef mixture on top of each bottom buns and cover with the remaining bun halves. Serve and enjoy!Note: You can toast your buns under broiler or bake the assembled buns for a few minutes. The toasting and baking process will prevent your buns from getting too soggy. Another tip is to add butter to your buns and it will give your sloppy joes extra delicious flavor.How to Serve Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy JoesTips and Secrets for Making the Best Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy JoesMake-ahead TipsIf you plan to make this recipe for a party or dinner the next day, you can cook the beef, onion and bell pepper, then add all the other ingredients except the cheese and buns.Let the mixture cool down and store it in the fridge.
