Why overpay for a Philly Cheesesteak when you could EASILY make it right at home without having to skimp on the cheesy, meaty goodness?!
I received a couple of blocks of Tillamook’s Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar and I immediately knew that I wanted to make a cheesesteak sandwich using a chuck steak, cooked to medium perfection. I decided to “Philly” it up by loading up on some caramelized onions and bell peppers. But I still felt like something was missing so I made some homemade garlic aioli and slathered that right on.
The garlic aioli served as a wonderful complement to the meaty goodness along with the creamy, crumbly cheese. I really loved that the cheese wasn’t too overpowering, and the flavors melded so well together.
