This recipe is simple and to the point, which makes it a go-to favorite around our home, but there are also some quick tips you can use to make it even better!

• Toast the hoagies before serving or add melted butter before filling.
• Make sure the ribeye is thinly sliced against the grain; this gives it a more authentic texture.
• Provolone gives it a nice smoky flavor that pairs well with the steak.
• If you need to make these gluten-free, use gluten-free Worcestershire sauce and gluten-free bread for serving.
• For more complex flavors, add sautéed mushrooms.
• If you prefer it spicy, add in red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.

How do you store leftover Philly Cheesesteaks?

Once fully cooled, store the leftover cheesesteak in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. When ready to serve, reheat in a microwave-safe bowl or plate for 1-2 minutes.

Freezer Meal Prep Instructions:

To prepare these Philly Cheesesteaks as a freezer meal, add the thinly sliced ribeye, sliced bell peppers, and sweet onions into a heavy-duty, gallon-sized freezer bag.

Sprinkle the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder over the ingredients, and then pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Squeeze out all excess air to prevent freezer burn, label the bag with the date, and freeze flat for up to 3 months.

Remember, Do not add the provolone cheese, butter, or hoagie rolls to the bag; keep those aside for the day you plan to serve!

When you are ready to cook, thaw the freezer bag completely in the refrigerator overnight. Pour the entire contents of the bag into a 6-quart slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours until the beef is tender and flavorful.
