How to Make Blackstone Philly Cheesesteak Hoagies

This isn’t just another Blackstone beef recipe — this is a crave-worthy hoagie made simple. Let’s dive into the prep and cook process.

Step 1: Preheat and Prep
Heat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high. While it’s heating, slice your peppers, onions, and set the shaved beef out to come to room temperature.

Step 2: Cook the Veggies
Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to one side of the griddle. Toss in the peppers and onions, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sauté until soft and slightly caramelized, about 6–8 minutes. Move them to a cooler spot on the griddle.

Step 3: Sear the Beef
Add the remaining oil and place the shaved beef on the hot zone. Drizzle Worcestershire sauce over the top. Let it cook undisturbed for 1–2 minutes, then flip and chop with a metal spatula until browned and cooked through.

Step 4: Combine and Cheese It Up
Mix the veggies back in with the beef. Divide the mixture into four piles. Place two slices of cheese over each pile and allow to melt. Use a dome or large metal bowl to cover for faster melting.

Step 5: Toast the Rolls
Split the hoagie rolls and butter them lightly. Toast cut side down on a clean griddle area until golden and crisp.

Step 6: Assemble the Hoagies
Scoop the cheesy beef-veggie mix into each roll. Serve hot with your choice of sauces or dips.

Recipe Tips for Success

• Use shaved ribeye or chuck roast for maximum flavor and tenderness. Pre-shaved beef is often available at most grocery stores or butchers.
• Cook veggies separately to avoid steaming. They get better char and flavor this way.
• Use provolone for classic flavor or go bold with pepper jack or cheddar.
• Toasting the rolls makes a huge difference in texture — don’t skip it.

How to Store and Reheat

Storage:
Allow leftovers to cool fully. Store the meat-veggie mixture in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Reheating:

• Griddle: Reheat directly on the Blackstone with a splash of water and cover to steam.
• Microwave: Heat on medium with a damp paper towel to prevent drying.

Avoid storing assembled hoagies — store components separately for best texture.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Overcrowding the griddle – Space matters for proper searing.
• Undercooking the onions/peppers – They should be soft, not crunchy.
• Skipping seasoning – Be generous with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire.
• Using cold beef – Letting the beef come to room temp helps it cook evenly.
