Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy Joes Recipe


These Philly cheese steak sloppy joes take your favorite ingredients of a Philly cheese steak sandwich and combine them with a classic sloppy joe. What I love about this recipe is that it is so easy to prepare and is great if you are looking for a quick meal. The process of preparing these sloppy joes is easy. Ground beef is cooked in the pan with onion and bell peppers. The mixture then gets the flavor from steak sauce, beef broth, salt, and pepper. A provolone cheese sauce is prepared by combining butter, flour, milk, and provolone. If you don’t want to prepare the cheese sauce, using provolone cheese slices would be great as well. These Philly cheese steak sloppy joes make a great dinner for any night of the week. Enjoy.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1lb ground beef
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper (seeded and chopped)
  • ¼ cup steak sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • salt and ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup provolone cheese (shredded)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook while breaking the ground beef up into chunks with a spatula or spoon until browned. Add the green bell pepper and onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the onions start to become tender. Drain any excess liquid. Stir in steak sauce and beef broth, season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook until the mixture is thickened and bubbly.
  2. While the meat is cooking, split the hamburger buns and butter each of the cut sides. Heat a large skillet to medium heat. Place split hamburger buns cut side down into the skillet and cook until lightly browned on the bottom. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in milk and cook until the mixture is thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese until it is melted and incorporated into the sauce.
  4. To assemble sloppy joes- pile the meat mixture onto the top of the bottom half of each bun, top with the provolone cheese sauce, and place the top half of the hamburger bun onto the sandwich.

I dropped the buns and didn't make the cheese sauce as well as cutting the serving size in half. Perfect tweak for a bariatric diet!

Making this right now. Trying mozzerella and cream cheese in the cheese sauce. I'm not a fan of provolone.

THIS RECIPE IS AMAZINGGGG! I'm eating now and said to myself "omg I have to leave a comment". Didnt make the cheese sauce, just topped with a slice of cheddar but the meat is tasty, sloppy, and just the bomb!

Thanks for sharing :)
