Philly Cheese Steak Subs

Ingredients:

1 1/2 lbs of boneless beef short ribs or rib eye steaks
( I used the rib eyes) and barbecued them

3 TBS olive oil

1/2 onion, thinly sliced

1 green pepper, thinly sliced

1 red pepper, thinly sliced

salt & pepper

Processed cheese sauce or Provolone slices

4 Crusty Italian rolls, cut in half


Directions:

Put the beef in the freezer for about 45 minutes.  Remove and thinly slice if you are going to pan fry the beef in a cast iron skillet. Alternatively, barbecue the meat to your liking. Cover and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Slice the beef into thin slices.

Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet on medium.  Add the onion and peppers and season with salt & pepper. Cook stirring occasionally for 20-25 minutes till carmelized.  Remove from pan and set aside.

If you are cooking the beef in the iron skillet, heat to medium-high. Then add some olive oil and add half of the thin slices of beef.  Cook on one side and then flip.  Add half the onion and pepper mixture to the beef and cook on the other side. About one minute per side.  Then do the same with the rest of the beef and pepper/onion mixture.

If you barbecue the beef, just cook the peppers and onions and keep warm will the beef is sliced and you are ready to assemble the sandwiches.

Warm the cheese sauce.

To assemble the sandwiches, place the beef and onions onto the bottom half of the roll, add the cheese sauce or provolone slices and top with the bread.

** Toast the bread if desired, either on the barbecue or in the toaster.
