  1. Question for all the folks from Philly here…bread down, pick up? Or bread in-hand, spatula pick up? Or does it matter?

  2. Did anyone encounter a very much too sticky dough when kneeding by hand? I can never quite get it as soft and easy to work with as in the video.

  3. It's not a Philly cheesesteak.Nobody in Philly calls it that. It's a cheesesteak. Also, you're allowed to put whatever you want on it, but mayo is almost never put on a cheesesteak. Also, the rolls are not pointy and the back is straight all the way down, so when you open the roll, it doesn't break the hinge.

  4. Looked good except the mayo. Mayo shouldn't be on an authentic cheese steak. Steak, cheese and maybe onions. Thats it. Saying you were disappointed in Philly when eating Philly cheese steaks… well.. um.. honestly, just lost credibility. I'm sure your sandwich was tasty, but it wasn't a "Philly cheese steak".

  5. Great video – sandwich looks bomb, definitely going to try the hoagie roll recipe. Only thing I'll mention is that putting mayo on a cheesesteak is sacrilegious in Philly, but to each their own!

  6. yeah… but you cooked it wrong. You added the salt too early, which dries out the beef. You didn't break up the meat or incorporate the cheese all the way through. You didn't hollow out the bread, so your sandwich has too much bread to meat. This is… mmm… nope. If I got this from a shop, I wouldn't go back there. This is a bad cheesesteak. This is like… getting a cheesesteak from Jersey Mike's or Subway. It's food, but it's not good.

  7. "You can make x item for $3!" (buy proper equipment, knife, learn to cook, ingredients…. total costs $$$)… BUT CHEAP

  8. I like to trim a Chuck roast of the extra fat and connective tissue then stick it in the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes. It's much easier to slice very thin if that's the way you like it. Adding a teaspoon or 2 of Worcestershire sauce while cooking the meat gives it a more complex flavor. Hot peppers are a nice option to finish the sandwich.

  9. Just starting vid there were red flags, questioning wtf kinda steak or meat you could use less than 4$ despite every other ingredient. Mean seriously, spending 20$ on place less than mile away. Chuck blade? Okay, its possibly cheaper, but unless you going to give 30c homemade cheese recipe i cant honestly believe 4$ sandwich, more so isnt cancerous or worse.

  10. Dont mean to sound hater-ish, just dumb-founded if nothing else, asking how could this be possible like a typical american without any foreign experience

  11. Still not a proper Philly cheesesteak if it isn’t a cheese sauce. It may be a cheesesteak but it’s not a Philly cheesesteak.

  12. They do not use American cheese in Phili cheese steak sandwiches… They use cheese whiz. If you don't believe me go to either the two spots that claimed to have been the origin of the sandwich which technically are owned by people who worked at the first restaurant but that's neither here nor there but yeah they use cheese whiz bro

  13. "Philly Cheesesteaks" are going for $16-$18 at some spots. But, they're not even making them correctly. They're complicating them. Put the bread on top of the meat, onions, and cheese on the grill for about a minute. Then, use your spatula to scoop everything up into the roll.

  14. Curious why chuck blade was used instead of chuck eye for this. Feel like the chuck eye would have more similar flavour and texture to ribeye.

  15. needs mayo, green peppers and muchrooms… also real philly cheesteaks from philly arent that good. Ive had better ones in about 4 different states and the worst one I ever had was in Philly and had pizza sauce on it… absolute garbage.

  16. Philly cheesesteak is one of my all time faves! I grew up outside of the city and had so many different ones from various zep shops, we called hoagies Zeps. Anyway, in my town they slathered on marinara sauce. When I first got a cheesesteak in Philly I was perplexed by the idea that there's no sauce. Also, the Wiz camp is very brutal! I'm not on team Wiz. This recipe looks totally doable and I must try it out. But mayo? I don't know but I think I'll have to try it.
    I'm loving your channel! Just found it today and I've been watching a bunch of videos while I crochet and decide what I'm cooking once my chicken defrosts in water. I'm also feeling hungry and a cheesesteak sounds soooo goooood right now. 😉

  17. Wrap your sammich before you eat it! Let it rest wrapped in baking paper and foil.
    It steams the bun in all the steaky goodness. Trust.
