Tips for Philly Cheesesteaks:
- Melt the Cheese – You can put the sandwiches on a cookie sheet and place in the oven to let the cheese melt. Sometimes, I put an extra slice of cheese and it is so delicious all melted.
- Onions and Mushrooms – Adding in onions and mushrooms adds flavor to the liquid and beef.
- Brown the Beef – Some recipes call for browning the beef, it is not necessary but you can if you prefer.
- Dip Sandwich – The liquid from cooking the ingredients is so good. It is great for dipping or spooning of your hoagies.
- Butter the hoagies – For a crispy, hoagie butter them before placing the oven on a baking sheet. We love the crunch it gives.
Variations for Philly Cheesesteaks:
- Change the meat – We used round steak, but you can also use beef chuck roast. Both meats come out tender and full of flavor.
- Cheese Options – Traditional a philly cheesesteaks are served with provolone, Cheez Whiz or American cheese. You can also use Mozzarella or cheddar cheese.
- Bun Options – We use hoagie buns, but you can easily use rolls or even just loaf bread. If you are looking for a low carb option, serve it without the sub.
- Worcestershire Sauce – Add in Worcestershire sauce for an added smoky flavor.

I cooked mine in big for 3.5 hours. Was nice and tender and very tasty
Can you cook on high for 3-4 hours and get the same results?
Lori – I’m sorry about that. I cook this recipe on low for 6 hours. I have updated the recipe and the post. Thank you!
Is this cooked on high or low for 6 hours? The recipe just says to cook “only” for 6 hours.
