Description

These Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes are a delicious twist on the classic sloppy joe sandwich, combining ground beef with sautéed onions and green peppers, all seasoned with steak seasoning and A-1 sauce, then topped with melty provolone cheese. Ready in just 30 minutes, they make a flavorful and satisfying meal perfect for a quick dinner.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp A-1 sauce
  • 1 tsp steak seasoning (or to taste)
  • 4 toasted sandwich buns
  • 4 slices provolone cheese


Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it is thoroughly browned, breaking it up as it cooks for even texture.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Add the diced onion and green bell pepper to the skillet with the beef, sautéing until the vegetables become tender and fragrant.
  3. Add Sauces and Seasoning: Stir in the beef broth, A-1 sauce, and steak seasoning, ensuring the mixture is well combined and evenly seasoned.
  4. Simmer: Let the mixture simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly and for the flavors to meld together beautifully.
  5. Assemble Sandwiches: Spoon the beef mixture generously onto the toasted sandwich buns, preparing them for their cheesy topping.
  6. Add Cheese: Place a slice of provolone cheese on top of the warm beef mixture on each bun and allow the heat to gently melt the cheese.
  7. Optional Broiling: For extra melty and bubbly cheese, place the assembled sandwiches under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.

Notes

  • Use steak seasoning to taste – adjust for preferred saltiness or additional spices.
  • To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute the provolone cheese with a vegan cheese alternative or omit it entirely.
  • For a heartier sandwich, add sautéed mushrooms or jalapeños along with the onion and green pepper.
  • Broiling is optional but enhances the melty, golden cheese topping.
  • Leftover beef mixture can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
