What's your fav kind of cheesesteak meat?

[Mikey]

Usually there's 3 kinds of ways you can get a cheesesteak

1. chopped steak

2. unchopped fillet

3. Steak-ums style

Which do you prefer ?

Given the choice, I like Steak-ums best on a cheesesteak

what about you ?

[wolfie]

Bet you know what i'm going to say.

Steak-ums are pre made super thin steak patties --- kind of like plain baloney made of steak meat

I'm trying to remember their names, but in Philly a couple of years ago I got to try out cheese-steaks from both of the dueling places across the street from each other. Wish I had written down which one I prefer.

I call those 'tire treads'. It's chopped or nothin' for me.

But chicken or beef?

You're thinking of Geno's and Pat's as the dueling places in Philly. I think they're both kind of "meh" as far as their steaks are preferred. I always found that the smaller, out of the way, places had better cheese steaks.

Oh, and you can really only have them with chopped steak. Any other way is an abomination.

The bigger question is whether you want provolone or Cheez Whiz and whether you want them "wit" (onions).

I know this makes me a heretic, but I always liked mine as a provolone "wit." But, I'd also add mayo, sweet peppers, and pepperoni. It was a great balance of sweet, salty, and savory in a sandwich.

Serve me up the chopped with provolone, lots of onions and green bell peppers

Yes Yes, and a plate of steak fries please. Oh and a pitcher!

Red sauce ? ... ketchup ... ? or something else ... ?

Red sauce for me

A real Philly Cheesesteak is made from Frozen Ribeye, sliced thinly with a deli slicer, and chopped on a flat grill. That being said, I always have some Steakums in the freezer.

And I substitute Mozzarella for provolone, but wither is better than "Wiz". Sauteed Vidalia Onions completes the homemade version for me, with a dash of celery salt.

This must be a region thing,....I just had to Google "Cheesesteak" to learn what they were.

Definitely a region thing. A Philly region thing. It's our disgusting bad-for-you sandwich, a la Chicago deep dish pizza.

I was stationed at the naval base in Philly. I had eaten cheesteak sarnis all over that city and they were damned good..... However, there is a resturaunt here called Barnicle Bill's and I have to say that they make the best steak Sarni I have ever had in my entire life!
I have not had one for a few years now because I try and watch what I eat these days but when I did, I used to get it with bacon which kicked it all up a notch!

Ughh...... I want one now!
