Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

A Philly cheesesteak is a great sandwich. A sloppy joe is a great sandwich. So naturally, when you bring the two together they make an exceptionally great sandwich. With all the delicious mess of a sloppy joe and all the ooey-gooey meaty cheesiness of a Philly cheesesteak, it’s the perfect thing to put between a bun whether you’re looking for a quick-fix for dinner or trying to satisfy a comfort food craving. (Spoiler alert: it does both.)

I know there is plenty of debate out there surrounding what truly belongs in a Philly cheesesteak, but our sloppy joe version starts with green peppers and onions that are sauteed in butter until they’re soft and fragrant.
