Bobby Flay Philly Cheesesteak Recipes

PHILLY BURGER

Steps:

• Bobby's Perfect Patty
• Shape 6 ounces of 80 percent lean ground beef chuck into a uniform patty, no more than 3/4 inch thick (don't overwork the meat). Make a depression in the center with your thumb so the burger won't bulge; the indent will rise as the patty cooks. Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan to high. Brush the burger with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, turning once (7 minutes for medium-rare). Avoid pressing with a spatula! Add cheese for the last minute of cooking.
• Provolone
• Oozy cheese makes this burger: Two slices of aged provolone are added during the last minute of grilling.
• Hot Peppers
• Bobby likes his Philly cheesesteaks with lots of pickled hot peppers, so he loads them on here, too.
• Roasted Peppers
• In place of classic griddled bell peppers, Bobby uses roasted red peppers, sliced into strips.
• Onions
• Bobby sautes thin rings of Spanish onion in canola oil until soft and golden to top off the burger.

"PHILLY CHEESESTEAK"

Steps:

• Combine the mustard and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl. Add the garlic and drizzle in olive oil while stirring. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Put the steak in a resealable plastic bag. Pour in 3/4 of the marinade and seal the bag. (Reserve the remaining marinade for the bread.) Let the steak marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Put the peppers and onions on the grill. Coat the onions with BBQ sauce. Once the peppers and onions are charred, move them to the top rack to keep them warm.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and put on the grill. After 5 minutes turn the steak over to sear the other side, about 12 minutes total cooking time, for medium-rare. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Cut the bread lengthwise and toast on the grill.
• Brush the remaining reserved marinade on both sides of the bread. Arrange the steak on the bottom half of the bread, then cover with the peppers and onions. Top with the cheese and cover with the other half of the bread. Cut into 4 pieces and serve.
