Ingredients
  

Ribeye steak
  • 1.5 lb ribeye steak Thinly sliced.
Onions and peppers
  • 2 onions Sliced.
  • 2 green bell peppers Sliced.
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • salt and pepper To taste.
Cheese and rolls
  • 8 slice provolone cheese Or use Cheese Whiz.
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • butter For toasting rolls.

Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet
  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Caramelize the vegetables
  1. Heat the Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat and add the oil.
  2. Cook the onions and green bell peppers until caramelized, about 8-10 minutes, then move them to the side.
Cook and chop the steak
  1. Season the thinly sliced ribeye steak with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook the steak on the hot griddle for 3-4 minutes, chopping with spatulas as it browns.
Melt cheese and toast the rolls
  1. Divide the steak into 4 portions and top each portion with provolone cheese, allowing it to melt.
  2. Butter and toast the hoagie rolls on the griddle until golden.
Assemble and serve
  1. Scoop each steak portion with the caramelized onions and peppers into a toasted hoagie roll.
  2. Serve immediately while the cheese is melted and the bread stays crisp.

Notes

Pro tip: keep a hot zone on the griddle for steak and only move onions/peppers to the side—this helps you get browning on the ribeye while still melting cheese quickly. Refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days in a sealed container; reheat in a hot skillet or griddle for best texture (freezing not recommended for sandwiches). Dietary swap: use reduced-fat provolone for a lighter cheese steak without changing the cooking method.
