Why you’ll love This Philly Cheesesteak Recipe

It’s SO easy to make! Sear the beef, cook it low and slow in the crockpot while you get things done, slice the beef then add it back to the slow cooker with the mushrooms and bell peppers. Now just slap on some cheese for a mostly hand’s off dinner home-run!

The beef is crazy tender. With the crockpot, there’s no risk of tough or overcooked beef, just melt-in-your mouth tender flavor fireworks. The beef is braised low and slow in a mélange of beef broth, Coke (a magical tenderizer), soy sauce, Worcestershire and seasonings. But the real magic happens by slicing the beef and then placing it back in the slow cooker until its succulent, meltingly tender.

The Philly Cheesesteak filling is make-ahead friendly. Cook the beef up to slicing, then refrigerate. When ready to serve, warm it up for an hour – that’s it! Bonus, I think it tastes even better this way!

Philly Cheesesteak FAQS

What is a Philly Cheesesteak?

A traditional Philly cheesesteak is made of thinly sliced ribeye steak browned on a griddle or skillet, then chopped into finer pieces before being topped with American, Provolone, or Cheese Whiz. Once the cheese melts, it is scooped up with a spatula and loaded into a hoagie roll. Sometimes sautéed onions are included in the mix or added on top. Contrary to popular belief, bell peppers are not part of a traditional Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich!

What Goes on a Philly Cheesesteak?

Philly Cheesesteaks — also known as Philadelphia cheese steak, Philly cheese steak, cheese steak sandwich, cheese steak, or steak and cheese — boast a tantalizing filling of thinly sliced steak and melted cheese served on a hoagie roll.

Many Philly Cheesesteaks also include sautéed onions and bell peppers. Some versions also contain mushrooms, sweet peppers, hot peppers, banana peppers, pimientos, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, olives and/or pepperoncini.

So, while I’ve kept this Crockpot Philly Cheesesteak recipe simple with meat, onions, bell peppers and cheese, feel free to add whatever toppings your heart – or belly – desires!

What’s the best meat for Philly Cheesesteak?

Ribeye is the traditional cut of beef used to make Philly cheesesteaks. However, since this is a crockpot recipe, you’ll want to choose a cut of beef that cooks well low and slow. I recommend boneless chuck roast which also can be labeled as a shoulder roast, chuck eye roast, or arm chuck roast. I use chuck roast in ALL of my shredded beef recipes such as Beef Barbacoa, Mississippi Pot, Traditional Pot Roast and Italian Beef with nothing but tender results.

Boneless chuck roast has a melt-in-your mouth texture and a succulent, beefy flavor due to its rich marbling. The marbling creates a self-basting effect as it breaks down and drips over the meat, resulting in tender beef every time!

A few notes about the beef in this Philly Cheesesteak recipe:

1. This recipe calls for a 3–5-pound chuck roast but the seasonings and liquid are very forgiving – so don’t worry if your roast is slightly larger.
2. Use boneless beef chuck roast that is thick cut and not rolled and tied with a string.
3. I purchase my chuck roast at Costco, use one roast for this shredded beef recipe and freeze the other for later. You’ll love having it on hand to pull out when you need it.

Philly Cheesesteak Ingredients

Tender chuck roast is robustly seasoned with a few of my secret weapon flavoring agents — Coca-Cola among others! It may sound strange to you, but I promise the mix of ingredients results in the juiciest, most flavorful slow cooker cheesesteaks EVER. Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe:

Hoagie rolls: This is the traditional choice for making cheesesteaks. They’re sturdy enough to hold all the juicy filling, but not so hard and crusty on the outside like a baguette. I like to find my rolls in the bakery section of the grocery store. Tip: If you find them on sale, they freeze great!
Cheese: Provolone is a favorite for its mild flavor and consistency, but you may also use American cheese or even Cheese Whiz. You will need two slices of Provolone per sandwich to make them satisfyingly cheesy. Alternatively, you can slice each piece in half and use one slice per sandwich if you’re looking to save some calories.
Chuck roast: Select boneless chuck roast that’s deep red, smells sweet and boasts bright, white marbling of fat throughout the meat. Chuck roast is considered the Mercedes of roasts thanks to its rich marbling which delivers succulent, beefy flavor and melt-in-your mouth texture. The marbling melts as it slow cooks, creating a self-basting effect that drips over the meat, keeping it extra juicy and infusing it with a coveted depth of flavor.
Beef broth: Please use reduced sodium beef broth so you have the luxury of adding concentrated beef bouillon. Please do not use chicken broth or vegetable broth because they do not have the same richness and depth of flavor.
Beef bouillon: This adds a depth of concentrated beefy flavor. You may choose from granulated beef bouillon, beef base (like Better Than Bouillon or !Zoup) or cubes, all in equal amounts. For all of these options, don’t dissolve in liquid first. If using cubes, crush them, then add directly to the crockpot.
Coke: You’ll need just 1 cup of Coke in this recipe. Use regular Coke, NOT diet! Coke has a caramelized sugar in it as well as flavorings similar to cinnamon, clove, allspice, cardamom, nutmeg, citrus zest, etc. – all in one – as well as acid to balance out these flavors. The acid also helps to tenderize the meat.
Worcestershire sauce: This is a flavor bomb all packed into one bottle. It boasts an intense, complex umami flavor from its ingredients of soy mingled with sour from tamarind and vinegar, sweetness from molasses and sugar, and dimension from the cloves, celery seed, and chili pepper extract.
Soy sauce: Use reduced sodium or the slow cooker cheesesteaks will be too salty.
Spices: You’ll need a blend of dried oregano, basil, parsley, and thyme as well as garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Yellow onion: Use one yellow onion, sliced about ¼-inch thick.
Mushrooms: I recommend using cremini mushrooms for the best texture and flavor.
Bell peppers: Peppers are actually not traditional in Philly Cheesesteaks, but I love the subtle texture and earthiness they bring, so take them or leave them.

How to Make Philly Cheesesteaks in a Crockpot

Crockpot Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are incredibly easy to make. The ingredients list is very basic and I love that the slow cooker does most of the work for you! Here’s an overview of how to make this Philly Cheesesteak recipe (full measurements found in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post):

Step 1: Sear the beef. Heat the oil over high heat in a large cast iron skillet. Using tongs or two forks, sear the meat on all sides until browned and transfer to a 6 qt. (or larger) slow cooker.

Step 2: Add remaining roast ingredients to the slow cooker. Add all of the braising liquid and seasonings and give them a stir. Lastly, add the onions on top.

showing how to make Crockpot Philly Cheesesteak by adding chuck roast, braising liquid, seasonings and onions to a slow cooker

Step 3: Cook. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours for a 3-pound roast, and 6 hours for a larger roast.
Step 4: Slice the roast. Remove the roast to a cutting board. Thinly slice the roast using a very sharp knife then add back to the slow cooker.

Step 5: Add the bell pepper and mushrooms. Give the meat and veggies a stir and continue to cook for an additional 45 minutes. Meanwhile, toast the hoagie rolls.

Step 6: Toast the hoagie rolls. Split the rolls and lay them cut side up on a large baking tray. Bake for 5 minutes to toast the rolls. After they’re toasted, spread each top and bottom half with optional spiced mayonnaise (ingredients in the recipe card below).

Step 7: Assemble the cheesesteaks. Top the toasted rolls by using tongs to get a good mixture of sliced beef, onions, and peppers.

To use the cheese, fold each slice in half and use two slices per hoagie.

Step 8: Melt the cheese in the oven. Return the baking tray to the oven and bake until the cheese is completely melted. You may serve the remaining liquid as a dip for the sandwiches, if desired.

Tips for MAking the Best Philly Cheesesteaks

Onions: For more tender onions, add them along with the beef. If you prefer your onions to be slightly firmer, add them during the last 45 minutes of cook time.
Set yourself up for success with the right cut of beef. Choose a chuck roast that is fresh, bright in color and contains lots of marbling because marbling = flavor and tenderness. If you use a different cut of beef, I cannot guarantee it will be melt-in-your-mouth tender.
Sear for flavor and moisture. Searing the roast creates the Maillard reaction resulting in rich, deep, complex flavor and prevents the surface of the beef from becoming dehydrated. Sear ALL sides until deeply golden – no sorry grey beef please!
Use a cast iron skillet to sear the beef. Cast iron gets piping hot without ruining the finish of your pan and retains heat exceptionally well for more even results.
Use regular Coke: Diet Coke won’t result in the same flavor. The artificial sweeteners in Diet Coke can break down the meat in an unappealing way.
Don’t crank up the crockpot temperature: You want the Philly Cheesesteak filling to be ultra juicy and tender, which means you must cook it on low. Do not be tempted to crank up the crockpot to high heat, it won’t deliver the same results.
Use a 6 quart crockpot, or bigger. You have 3 to 5 pounds of chuck roast to cook, after all!
Toast the hoagie rolls: If you skip the toasting process, the rolls will quickly become soggy once the juicy filling is piled on top of them.

Can This Recipe Be Made Without a Crockpot?

Of course! If you don’t have a Crockpot follow my classic Philly Cheesesteak recipe instead.

possible recipe variations

You can add different toppings to the Philly Cheesesteaks, shred the beef, or skip the rolls altogether and pile the filling on nachos, pizza, potatoes, etc. Here are a few tasty ideas:

Use a different cheese: swap the Provolone for American cheese or Cheese Whiz.
Add toppings: choose from sweet peppers, hot peppers, banana peppers, pimientos, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, olives and/or pepperoncini, etc. You can even add more non traditional toppings like bacon, sun-dried tomatoes, pickled red onions, etc.
Shred the beef: if you would like to shred the beef instead of slice it, then cook it until fall apart tender – closer to 6-8 hours on LOW.
Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Cheese: Pile the filling on thick bread, butter the outside and toast in butter or use a panini press.
Philly Cheesesteak Nachos: Skip the hoagie rolls and load the filling and cheese on thick tortilla chips and bake until melted. Alternatively, use my queso blanco for the cheese instead.
Pizza: Top your favorite pizza dough with the filling followed by cheese and bake according to directions. You can also use the pizza dough to make Stromboli or calzones.
Stuffed peppers: Combine the filling with some rice and follow this recipe for baking instructions.
Quesadillas: Layer a burrito size tortilla with cheese and filling and grill until golden, cheesy perfection.
Rice: Serve the filling over or stirred directly into cheesy rice.
Potatoes: Serve the filling over mashed potatoes, French fries or baked potatoes (detailed below).
Baked Potatoes. Poke holes in washed, dried potatoes. Place on a foil lined baking sheet and lightly brush with oil and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender and the skin is crispy. Slice open the potatoes, top with filling and provolone then place back in the oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese melts. Top with sour cream, green onions, etc.

What to Serve With Philly Cheesesteaks

Philly Cheesesteaks are often served with fries, onion rings, potato chips and a green salad and/or pasta salad. Here are some other ideas to try:

Pasta Salads: I LOVE serving Philly Cheesesteaks with Italian Pasta Salad with Tortellini, Bacon Ranch Pasta Salad, BLT Pasta Salad with Lemon Chive Dressing and Creamy Bacon Pea Pasta Salad with Lemon Chive Dressing Salad.
Green salad: Garden Salad with Homemade Ranch, Italian Green Bean Salad, Caesar Salad and Cucumber Tomato Salad are all crisp and refreshing or go sweet and tangy with Apple Candied Walnut Salad, Strawberry Avocado Broccoli Salad or Strawberry Spinach Salad.
Veggies: Roasted Asparagus, Glazed Carrots, Roasted Cauliflower, Sautéed Lemon Garlic Brussels Sprouts, Roasted Broccoli, Roasted Honey Carrots, etc. are all winners.
Fruit: Sweet, refreshing fruit pairs beautifully with the robust, tangy beef. Creamy Grape Salad, Berry Salad in Mascarpone, Perfect Fruit Salad or Winter Fruit Salad are all winners.
Potatoes: Go simple with potato chips or try Baked Parmesan fries, Potato Salad, Smashed Potatoes or Mashed Potatoes.
Comfort food: Million Dollar Macaroni and Cheese, Baked Beans with Brown Sugar and Bacon, Slow Cooker Creamed Corn for the win!

meal prep

The filling can be prepared up to 5 days in advance and reheated in the Crockpot, or on the stovetop when you’re ready to toast the hoagie rolls and assemble the sandwiches. Alternatively, you can slice the beef and let it soak in the broth (this tastes amazing!). Here’s how:

1. Slice beef and return to the slow cooker.
2. Remove ceramic insert from slow cooker and let cool to room temperature (for food safety and because it can crack if placed directly in the refrigerator).
3. Refrigerate the beef in the juices up to 24 hours.
4. When ready to heat, skim off all the hardened fat if desired.
5. Cook on LOW in the slow cooker for 30 minutes, then add the bell peppers and mushrooms and cook for an additional 45 minutes.
6. Continue per recipe instructions.

HOW TO STORE

Store your cooked Philly Cheesesteak filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I like to refrigerate mine with any liquid left in the Crockpot for extra moisture and flavor.

HOW TO REHEAT

The plain meat and vegetables can easily be reheated on the stove or in the microwave. Once you assemble the sandwiches, they’re best enjoyed right away.

Stove: Heat beef and veggies over medium heat, stirring occasionally until heated through. Assemble sandwiches and bake in the oven as directed.

Microwave: Transfer smaller servings of beef and veggies to a microwave-safe dish, cover with a microwave-safe lid or paper towel. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then continue to microwave for 15-second intervals, just until warmed through. Assemble sandwiches and bake in the oven as directed.

Crockpot: For larger servings, return the beef and veggies to the Crockpot and heat on Low until warmed through. This will take an hour or more. Assemble sandwiches and bake in the oven as directed.

Can Philly Cheesesteaks Be Frozen?

Yes, you certainly can! You may freeze both the rolls and the Philly cheesesteak meat separately:

To freeze Philly Cheesesteaks:

1. Let meat and veggies cool completely.
2. Transfer to an air-tight container or a heavy-duty freezer bag along with some of the juices (to keep it juicy).
3. Squeeze out any excess air to prevent freezer burn.
4. Label and freeze for up to 3 months.
5. When ready to eat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
6. Reheat as instructed above.

1 cup low sodium beef broth
1 cup Coke (NOT diet)
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon beef bouillon (granulated, beef base or crushed cubes)

SPICED MAYONNAISE (OPTIONAL)

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish (optional)
1 tablespoon hot sauce or more to taste

Instructions

Sear beef: Heat vegetable oil over high heat in a large cast iron skillet. Once smoking, add beef and sear on all sides until deeply browned, using tongs or two forks to rotate. Transfer beef to a lightly greased 6 qt. (or larger) slow cooker.
Cook beef: Add all remaining "Slow Cooker Beef" ingredients to the slow cooker up to the onions (broth through thyme). Give them a stir, then add the onions on top. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours for a 3-pound roast and closer to 6 hours for a larger roast.
Slice beef and add veggies: Remove the roast to a cutting board and thinly slice across the grain. Place sliced meat back in the slow cooker. Add the bell peppers and mushrooms and give everything a stir, then press the meat/veggies down into the braising liquid. Cover and cook on LOW for 45 minutes. Meanwhile…
Toast rolls: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Split rolls and lay them cut side up on two large baking sheets. Working in batches as needed, bake for 5 minutes to toast the buns.
Assemble: Spread each top and bottom half of toasted hoagie rolls with Spiced Mayonnaise. Layer the bottom rolls with beef/veggies and top with 2 slices of folded provolone cheese. If using larger slices (like from Costco), use one slice per hoagie, cut in half to fit the bun.
Melt cheese: Return baking sheets to the oven (keep sandwiches open faced) and bake at 400 degrees F for 5-10 minutes or until cheese is completely melted. Serve immediately. You may serve the remaining liquid as a dip for the sandwiches, if desired.

Notes

Cheese: Provolone is a favorite for its mild flavor and consistency, but you may also use American cheese or even Cheese Whiz. You will need two slices of Provolone per sandwich to make them satisfyingly cheesy OR you can slice each piece in half and use one slice per sandwich if you’re looking to save some calories. (Note, if you are using larger, Costco-size cheese, you may need just one slice per sandwich).
Beef bouillon: This adds a depth of concentrated beefy flavor. You may choose from granulated beef bouillon, beef base (like Better Than Bouillon or !Zoup) or cubes, all in equal amounts. For all of these options, don’t dissolve in liquid first. If using cubes, crush them, then add directly to the crockpot.
Coke: Coke not only adds flavor (see post) but the acid works wonders at tenderizing the meat. Please don’t use Diet Coke. The artificial sweeteners in Diet Coke can break down the meat in an unappealing way.
Storage: Store your cooked Philly Cheesesteak filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I like to refrigerate mine with any liquid left in the Crockpot for extra moisture and flavor.

MAKE AHEAD

1. Prepare recipe up to slicing the beef and adding it back the slow cooker, but don’t add the mushrooms and bell peppers yet.
2. Remove ceramic insert from slow cooker and let cool to room temperature (for food safety and because it can crack if placed directly in the refrigerator).
3. Refrigerate the beef in the juices up to 24 hours.
4. When ready to heat, skim off all the hardened fat if desired.
5. Cook on LOW in the slow cooker for 30 minutes, then add the bell peppers and mushrooms and cook for an additional 45 minutes.
6. Continue per recipe instructions.

Help! Will a roast be done on low in just 4-5 hours? I normally cook Chuck roast for 10 hours on low?

  Hi Jamie, yes, we are not cooking to the point of shreddable tender because we are slicing it.

Good Lord Jen! Another one that’s outta the park! I followed exactly and man was it good. Our friends were guinea pigs with us and everyone REALLY enjoyed these. I used a 3 1/2 pound roast and that made 4 big, fat subs, in rolls that were about 6″ long. There was enough leftover for about 4 more until my husband and I ate a bunch right out of the pot the next day! It’s delicious cold too. Thanks again for a great recipe that will be a regular in our home – every one of your recipes that I have tried so far are excellent!

This recipe is AMAZING! Easy, flavorful, and will be on repeat! We have made several of your recipes, and knew this wouldn’t disappoint and it did not. I made it the night before and reheated the beef in the slow cooker the next evening. I thought 4 hours wasn’t quite enough time if we were going to eat that night. But after an hour or so reheating it was perfect! I sauteed the veggies separately in my cast iron because my family likes them more crunchy. That was the only change the recipe was followed to the “T”! A perfect weeknight meal that everyone loved!
