Instructions:

  1. Cook the Ground Meat: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, garlic, and mushrooms (if using) to the skillet with the ground beef. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
  3. Make the Sauce: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, beef broth, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5-10 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce and thicken slightly.
  4. Prepare the Sloppy Joe Mixture: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Add the mayo-mustard mixture to the skillet with the beef and vegetables, stirring to combine and coat everything in the creamy sauce.
  5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded provolone or American cheese over the sloppy joe mixture and stir until the cheese melts and becomes creamy.
  6. Assemble the Sandwiches: Toast the hamburger buns lightly if desired. Spoon the cheesy cheesesteak sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom half of each bun, then top with the other half of the bun.
  7. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Cheese Options: Provolone is the traditional choice for Philly cheesesteaks, but you can also use American cheese, mozzarella, or even cheddar, depending on your preference.
  • Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes, hot sauce, or sliced jalapeños for a spicy kick.
  • Vegan Version: Use plant-based ground meat (like lentils or a meat substitute), dairy-free mayo, and vegan cheese for a plant-based version of this dish.
  • Add Extra Veggies: Feel free to load your cheesesteak sloppy joes with other veggies like spinach, tomatoes, or pickles for extra flavor.

Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes offer a fun, hearty twist on a classic sloppy joe. The creamy, cheesy beef mixture combined with the crunch of the bun makes for an irresistible, comforting meal that everyone will love!
