Slow Cooker Cheesesteak Sandwiches
I LOVE me some Philly Cheesesteak! And while I admit that I haven't been to either Pat's or Gino's in Philladeplpia, this slow cooker Cheese Steak Recipe is pretty incredible. And it's basically a dump recipe, which is my favorite kind. Just throw everything in the slow cooker. I wasn't actually able to make them for my family for dinner. I didn't have time, so it had to be done on a Sunday afternoon. They were done at about 3pm, and then I photographed them.
My 11-year-old son had 2 of friends over, though. They came in from playing outside and immediately said, “What is that smell??? I want that!” As soon as I finished taking photos, all 3 of the boys devoured the sandwiches, saying things like “oh my gosh this is so good.” So yeah… they're good.
