Instructions:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded provolone or American cheese over the sloppy joe mixture and stir until the cheese melts and becomes creamy.
- 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.
- 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!
