Ingredients
- 2.5 lbs shaved chuck roast sliced very thin
- 5 tablespoons neutral oil canola or avocado, divided
- 2½ tablespoons butter optional, for richness
- 1 large onion thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 8 oz mushrooms thinly sliced (white button or cremini work well)
- 4-6 hoagie rolls soft inside, lightly crusty outside
- 14-16 slices provolone cheese or American/Whiz if preferred
- 2½ teaspoons granulated garlic
- 2½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1¼ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prep the beef: Season shaved chuck roast with 2½ teaspoon kosher salt, 1¼ teaspoon black pepper, and 2 ½ teaspoon granulated garlic.
- Cook veggies: Heat 2 ½ tablespoon oil in the 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high. Add onion, green and red bell peppers, and mushrooms. Sauté until golden and softened, about 8–10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Sear the beef: Add the remaining 2 ½ tablespoon oil to the skillet. Spread shaved chuck roast in a single layer. Cook quickly, about 1–2 minutes per side, flipping once. Add 2 ½ tablespoon butter and 2 ½ teaspoon Worcestershire near the end if desired.
- Melt the cheese: Return onion, peppers, and mushrooms to the pan. Layer 14–16 slices provolone over the beef. Cover briefly (30–60 seconds) until melted.
- Toast the rolls: Split hoagie rolls and toast lightly in oven or skillet for structure.
- Assemble: Pile cheesy beef-and-veggie mixture generously into rolls. Press gently with spatula to meld flavors. Serve hot.
Notes
- Thin vegetable slices help everything cook evenly.
- Brown the beef quickly for the best texture.
- Covering the skillet melts the cheese perfectly.
