Ingredients
Scale
Meat:
- 1 pound (1 lb / 454 grams) ground beef
Vegetables:
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
Seasonings and Sauces:
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Cheese and Bread:
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high temperature and brown the ground beef, thoroughly breaking it down into crumbly texture.
- Eliminate excess grease by carefully draining fat from the cooked meat.
- Incorporate diced bell peppers and onions into the skillet, sautéing until vegetables become translucent and slightly tender, approximately 4-5 minutes.
- Season the meat mixture with ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring consistently to distribute flavors evenly.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes, enabling ingredients to meld and develop a rich, robust taste profile.
- Reduce skillet temperature to low and gently fold shredded cheese into the beef mixture, stirring until cheese melts completely and creates a creamy consistency.
- Toast hamburger buns lightly to enhance their texture and prevent sogginess.
- Generously spoon the cheesy beef mixture onto prepared buns, ensuring even distribution.
- Serve immediately while the filling remains warm and cheese is smoothly integrated, providing a delectable Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy Joe experience.
Notes
- Optimize meat texture by using lean ground beef to prevent excessive grease and ensure a cleaner, more flavorful sloppy joe base.
- Customize cheese options by experimenting with provolone, white cheddar, or a blend of cheeses for a more authentic Philly cheesesteak experience.
- Enhance vegetable flavor by slightly caramelizing bell peppers and onions before adding to the meat mixture, which deepens the overall taste profile.
- Consider low-carb alternatives by serving the mixture over lettuce wraps or using cauliflower rolls for gluten-sensitive or keto-friendly dietary needs.
