Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef (lean or regular)
  • 1 large sliced onion (caramelized)
  • 1 medium bell pepper (optional, sliced)
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 soft hoagie rolls
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add sliced onions and bell peppers if using. Sauté until soft and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning and bring out natural sweetness.
  2. Cook the Ground Beef: Push the vegetables to one side of the pan. Add ground beef and break it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Stir in minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper during the last couple of minutes to build flavor.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Mix the cooked vegetables thoroughly with the ground beef. Adjust seasoning if necessary to ensure a balanced, savory taste that complements the cheese.
  4. Melt the Cheese: Lower the heat. Layer provolone cheese slices evenly over the beef and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet briefly to allow the cheese to melt and create a gooey, irresistible layer.
  5. Assemble and Serve: Spoon the cheesy ground beef mixture generously into soft hoagie rolls. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Choose quality bread such as soft yet sturdy hoagie rolls to prevent sogginess.
  • Worcestershire sauce adds depth and umami flavor to the beef.
  • Caramelizing onions low and slow enhances sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a cast iron skillet if possible for even cooking and moist beef texture.
  • Cover the pan when melting cheese to ensure smooth, gooey results.
