The Secret is Out

The secret to a really great Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich isn't hard to figure out.

Yes - you use sliced ribeye. Grilled in garlic.

Yes - you use strong sweet onions carmelized (again in garlic) sauted with peppers and mushrooms.

But the secret? What makes a good Philly Cheesesteak GREAT? It's the bread. Plain and simple. It's that heavy bread made with bad water. THAT I can't do up here.

But I got a cravin'!!!

No one does cheesesteaks like Dalessandros outside Philadelphia near where I used to live. No one! The bread is killer and the steaks . . . mmmmm. Must.have.steaks.now!

For the second time this week I am wishing I could eat meat. Oh, and that I also lived in America, as I never heard of a cheesesteak. But damn, that sounds good. I'd settle for just the onions. Mmmm

I'm not an expert when it comes to Philly Cheesesteaks. I've only had one. Ever. But, I know it was the REAL thing because not only was I in Philadelphia (actually just outside of it) but the friend ordering it for me (He couldn't believe I'd never had one. Ever.) was born, raised and still lives there.

He says the cheese is what makes the difference. If it's not Cheez Whiz, it's not a real Philly Cheesesteak.

Thanks loads, Tammi. I want one. Bad.
