Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 small green bell pepper, diced
  • 8 ounces brown mushrooms, minced
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 8 ounces provolone cheese slices, chopped (use 6 oz for a less cheesy version)

 

  • 6 brioche hamburger buns

Instructions

  • Brown the Beef: Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it develops a deep brown crust on the bottom before breaking it apart. Continue cooking until about 50% of the beef has a rich crust.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Remove the beef from the skillet and add the butter, diced onions, bell peppers, and minced mushrooms. Allow the vegetables to brown for 1-2 minutes without stirring, then stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Make the Sauce: Return the beef to the skillet. In a small cup, whisk together the beef broth and cornstarch until smooth. Pour this mixture into the skillet along with the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Simmer: Let the mixture cook until it thickens and becomes slightly less liquidy, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Melt the Cheese: Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped provolone cheese until melted and gooey.

 

  • Serve: Serve the Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joe mixture piled high on toasted brioche buns.
