Gordon Ramsay’s Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes Recipe Ingredients

• 450g lean ground beef
• 30g butter
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 1 small green bell pepper, diced
• 230g brown mushrooms, minced
• 30g ketchup
• 15g Worcestershire sauce
• 3g Kosher salt
• 3g ground black pepper
• 8g cornstarch
• 240ml beef broth
• 225g provolone cheese, chopped or shredded
• 6 brioche hamburger buns (buttered + toasted)

How To Make Gordon Ramsay’s Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

1. Brown the beef: Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the ground beef and let it sear, untouched, for 1 minute to develop a deep brown crust. Then, break it up with a spoon and continue to cook until fully browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.
2. Sauté the vegetables: Melt the butter in the same pan. Add the onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and well browned.
3. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, cornstarch, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until the cornstarch is dissolved.
4. Combine and simmer: Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Bring it to a simmer and cook for 3–5 minutes, stirring, until the sauce has thickened.
5. Add the beef and cheese: Return the browned beef to the pan and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and stir in the provolone cheese until it is melted and the mixture is creamy.
6. Assemble and serve: Butter and toast the brioche buns. Spoon the beef mixture generously onto the toasted buns and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

• How do I get the most flavor from the beef? The secret is to get a deep, dark sear. Let the ground beef sit untouched in the hot pan for a full minute before you start breaking it apart. This creates a caramelized crust that adds a huge amount of flavor.
• How do I get a thick, not watery, sauce? The cornstarch slurry is key. Whisking the cornstarch into the cold beef broth before adding it to the hot pan ensures it dissolves completely and thickens the sauce smoothly without any lumps.
• Why is it important to toast the buns? Toasting the buttered buns does two things: it adds a rich, buttery flavor and, more importantly, it creates a barrier that helps prevent the bottom bun from getting soggy from the juicy filling.
• Can I use a different kind of cheese? Absolutely. While provolone is classic for a Philly cheesesteak flavor, this would also be delicious with Cheez Whiz for a more traditional experience, or with American cheese or a mild cheddar.

What To Serve With Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

How To Store Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

Refrigerate: Store the leftover meat mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. It’s best to store it separately from the buns. Reheat: Reheat the meat mixture gently in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Toast fresh buns just before serving.
