Ingredients for Philly Cheesesteak on Blackstone

• Hoagie rolls – Check the bakery of your local grocery store for freshly baked hoagie rolls.
• Thinly sliced steak – If you can get shaved ribeye from the butcher, it is traditionally the best for a Philly cheesesteak. However, there are other more affordable cuts of meat you can buy and slice thinly at home. You should have good results using flank steak or strip steak. Sirloin steak would also be a good substitute to choose as a replacement for ribeye, it’s actually what we used.
• Provolone cheese – You can use other cheese if you prefer, but provolone cheese will give your cheesesteak the classic flavor you know and love.
• Butter – Salted and unsalted butter will both work fine in this tasty recipe.
• Olive oil – This adds a protective layer to the porous surface of your Blackstone grill and over time, it will be really nicely seasoned. You can also use vegetable oil, canola oil or coconut oil in it’s place.
• Mayonnaise – Even if you’re not a fan of mayo, give it a shot on a Philly cheesesteak. The added creaminess is super tasty. It is truly the secret ingredient to a great tasting Philly cheesesteak.
• Beef seasoning – Our Gimme Some Grilling beef seasoning is the perfect Philly cheese steak seasoning. If you don’t have that, your favorite beef seasoning or our homemade steak seasoning (brown sugar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, chili powder) will work great as well.
• Onion – Sliced white onion or yellow onion will both have a good flavor for Philly cheesesteak.
• Green peppers – Sliced green bell peppers are have the perfect sweet-bitter balance, so I recommend only using that or red bell pepper if you are in a pinch.

How to Make Philly Cheesesteak on Blackstone Grill

Place butter and olive oil in the middle of preheated Blackstone, spread it around so it all melts.

Add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the heated griddle. Coat them well in butter and oil and then sauté for 3-5 minutes until onions become tender. You can cook a little longer to caramelize the onions if you like that flavor.

Move the onions and peppers to the cooler side of the Blackstone.

Place the sliced steak in the center of the griddle and spread it out into a thin layer. Season steak well with beef seasoning.

Allow it to sear for 3-5 minutes, then flip each piece and continue to cook until all of the steak is cooked through.

Evenly divide the steak into 4 portions on the griddle and top with peppers and onions. Place two slices of provolone cheese on top of each pile and let the cheese melt.

Spread a thin layer of mayo onto each hoagie roll and then place them face down on the cooler side of the Blackstone to lightly toast for 2-3 minutes, then set toasted buns on a cool pan or platter.

Using a metal spatula, scoop each pile onto a hoagie roll.

Serve immediately and enjoy.
