How To Make The Philly Cheesesteak Burger — Recipe
May 23, 2017 | Joe Gorgone
Every city in America has its own unique flavors and cuisines that have become synonymous with those cities. Philadelphia, for example, has become synonymous with the delicious and ever-greasy Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. While there is some debate as to the proper way to order a Philly Cheesesteak (onions and Whiz, etc.), we can all agree that strips of steak covered in melted cheese, onions, and peppers fits the bill.
For all those Burger lovers who want to bring their love of Philly Cheesesteaks to their Burgers, we’ve got the recipe for you. Recently served from The Very Best Burger Truck at the Rittenhouse Row Spring Festival in Philadelphia, the Philly Cheesesteak Burger marries a hearty steak flavor with melted provolone, onions, and peppers.
Ingredients
- Schweid & Sons Signature Series: The Chuck Brisket Burger
- Provolone
- Bell Pepper (sliced into thin slivers)
- Yellow Onion (sliced into thin slivers)
- Kosher Salt (to taste)
- Kaiser Roll
Instructions
- Season peppers and yellow onions with kosher salt and saute on low-medium heat until the onions become translucent and the peppers soften. Set aside.
- Cook your Burger to order (4-5 minutes per side on high heat will usually yield a medium rare Burger). When your Burger is almost done cooking, place a slice of Provolone cheese on top and allow to melt. Use the Quick Steam Method for a faster melt.
- Build your Burger: Bottom Bun, Burger with Cheese, Onions and Peppers, Top Bun. Enjoy!
