Here are my rules for a good cheesesteak. (Hint, I have a strong preference for the pizza steak):
- Start with the rolls. They need to be fresh, firm and big enough to hold the sandwich. In Philly, that often means Amoroso's.
- The meat has to be fresh and chopped up into little pieces, not just cooked and tossed whole on the roll.
- The cheese (personal preference is provolone, not Cheez Whiz) should be thoroughly melted on top of the meat.
- Wit or wit'out? Personal preference is wit'out fried onions. But be generous with the portion if they are there.
- Finally, top it with real marinara sauce. Not ketchup. What is this, Jersey?
