Ground Beef Philly Cheesesteaks and Sausage
these Ground Beef Philly Cheesesteaks with sausage, peppers, and provolone bring classic sandwich comfort in a quick, weeknight-friendly way.
Equipment
- Large Skillet
Ingredients
Meat Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef 80/20 blend preferred
- 1/2 lb Italian sausage hot or mild, casing removed
Vegetables & Seasoning
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Assembly
- 4 whole wheat sandwich rolls or hoagie rolls
- 8 slices provolone cheese or more, to taste
- spicy aioli optional, for serving
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Add ground beef and sausage. Cook, breaking apart with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess grease, leaving a little for flavor.
- Push the meat to one side of the skillet. Add diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes, until soft and slightly caramelized. Stir in garlic and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 2 more minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Lay provolone slices on top and let melt gently over the meat and veggies.
- Toast your sandwich rolls in a dry skillet or oven until lightly crisped, if desired.
- Spoon the hot filling into each roll. Add spicy aioli if using. Press slightly and serve warm.
Notes
Use hot Italian sausage or add diced jalapeños for a spicier version. Make the filling a day ahead and reheat with a splash of broth. Leftovers work great over rice or stuffed into bell peppers for a low-carb option.
