  2. 2

    Once browned, remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

  4. 4

    In a mixing bowl, combine the beef broth, cornstarch, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

  5. 5

    Pour the sauce into the sautéed vegetables, cooking for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

About this Recipe

Gordon Ramsay’s Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes: Your New Weeknight Favorite

Get ready to elevate your dinner game with Gordon Ramsay’s Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes You’ll Love! This ingenious recipe takes two beloved comfort foods – the savory, cheesy goodness of a Philly Cheesesteak and the messy, satisfying delight of Sloppy Joes – and combines them into one unforgettable meal. Perfect for busy weeknights, this easy recipe brings a chef-inspired twist to your table in just 35 minutes.

What makes this dish truly special is the harmonious blend of classic flavors. Tender ground beef (or ground turkey for a leaner option) is simmered with sweet onions, crisp green bell peppers, and earthy mushrooms, all coated in a rich, savory sauce infused with ketchup and Worcestershire. The grand finale? Melty provolone cheese, transforming each bite into a gooey, cheesy masterpiece nestled in a toasted brioche bun.

Tips for the Perfect Cheesy Sloppy Joes

  • Meat Matters: While lean ground beef is traditional, don't hesitate to use ground turkey for a lighter, yet equally flavorful, experience. Browning the meat well before adding vegetables develops a deeper flavor.
  • Veggie Power: The combination of yellow onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms is classic, but feel free to experiment! Red bell peppers or even a mix of mushrooms like cremini or portobello can add different dimensions.
  • Cheesy Perfection: Provolone delivers that authentic Philly cheesesteak flavor, but mozzarella or gouda also melt beautifully and offer a delicious twist. Layer it on top of the warm sloppy joe mixture just before serving to get that perfect gooey melt.
  • Serving Suggestions: These Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes are incredibly satisfying on their own. For a complete meal, serve them alongside crispy french fries, a simple side salad, or some roasted broccoli. They're designed to be a bit messy, so grab extra napkins and dig in!

This isn't just an easy dinner; it's a culinary experience that's sure to become a regular request in your home. Get ready for a delicious, chef-approved meal that delivers on flavor and fun!
