Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, finely diced

- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup beef broth
- ¼ cup A.1. Sauce
- 1 teaspoon steak seasoning
- Sliced provolone cheese
- Hamburger buns or slider buns
How to Make Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook and crumble the ground beef, onion, green pepper, and salt until the beef is no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.
- Sprinkle the cornstarch over the meat and stir until well coated.
- Add the beef broth, A.1. sauce, and steak seasoning. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture will thicken as it cooks and even more once off the heat.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to broil. Place buns on a baking sheet and butter each one lightly.
- Broil the buns for just a few minutes until lightly toasted — watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Using a slotted spoon, scoop the meat mixture onto the bottom half of each bun.
- Top each sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese and broil again for a few minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Assemble the sandwiches by placing the cheesy top bun over the meat-filled bottom bun. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Nutrition is calculated for ⅙ of the meat mixture, one slice of provolone cheese, and one hamburger bun.
- If using slider buns or feeding children, this recipe easily serves 8 sandwiches.
- Toasting the buns is highly recommended for extra flavor and texture, but optional.
- This is a quick and easy version of Philly cheesesteaks — not an authentic recipe!
