Ingredients

It doesn’t get any more simple than this! These slow cooker Philly cheesesteaks only take a few ingredients. You can switch things up and add whatever you want to your slow cooker to add flavor and variety. Here is what I use in this recipe. You can find the measurements below in the recipe card.

  • Beef: I like to use top sirloin and cut it into strips. You can always find meat on sale and slice it up, a lot of cuts can work for this recipe like a chuck roast.
  • Onion: White or yellow will work, cut into slices.
  • Red and Green Peppers: These are classic, it takes just a few minutes to chop up fresh ones into strips.
  • Beef Broth: This makes the meat soft, tender, and juicy.
  • Garlic Powder: Adds extra flavor to the meat.
  • Italian Seasoning: I like to make my own homemade blend because the flavor is fresh and there is no added salt.
  • Salt and Pepper: This is to season the meat.
  • Hoagie Rolls: Hoagie rolls are definitely the best in my opinion, but you can use any type of bun you want.
  • Provolone Cheese: The cheese gets so melty and delicious, you have to add it on top!

Tips for Making Slow Cooker Philly Cheesesteaks

There are so many variations of these slow cooker Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. You can add a lot of fun things to your crock pot for extra flavor and keep things interesting. Get creative with how you make these Philly cheese steaks!

  • Use Cheese Whiz: Now, I’m not saying that people from Philly are going to like this, but cheez whiz makes the most amazing sticky cheese and meat mixture ever. It’s a great substitute for the cheese in this recipe! Just spray it on top and let it melt into the meat. You won’t regret trying it at least once!
  • Spice Things Up: Add some Worcestershire sauce to the broth while the meat it cooking! It adds extra flavor and a little spice that you are going to love. You could also add other hot sauces when you are assembling your crockpot Philly cheesesteaks.
  • Add Other Ingredients: Beer makes the broth taste incredible, if you want to add some, a half cup of your favorite brand makes this sandwich incredible. I also toss in mushrooms when I’m making these

Storing Leftovers.

Like most sandwiches, these slow cooker Philly cheesesteaks are best stored separately and then assembled when you are ready to eat them. I would store the meat and veggies in one container, and keep the hoagies untoasted until you are ready to serve some up.

  • In the Refrigerator: Store your meat and cheese in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
