Philly Cheez Wit

Eatin Smoke · Feb 6, 2012

Living in the midwest I often crave one of my favorites from Philly.......a Cheesesteak w/ Onions!

Fired up the BSK. Started out frying some onions on the cast iron pizza pan

Added thinly sliced ribeye steak

Fresh loaf of french bread

Tasted great but there is still nothing like the real thing!

Cheese Wiz, American & Provolone are the typical options.

the wit refers to having onions or not

Nice. :thumb:

I was born 24 miles from Philly, and lived there until I was a teen. I ate a lot of cheesesteaks, and a lot of hoagies.

I've been meaning to make some real ribeye cheesesteak sammies, but just haven't pulled the trigger.

I'm sure my local Kroger will wonder why the fark I want them to slice ribeye sandwich thin, so I'll probably do it myself.

I grew up eating it with provolone and onions. I've actually never had it with wiz.

Thanks.

That's wiz-with. Not widespread. The "with" is grilled onions.

Traditionally you say two things to the person taking the order:

Type of cheese
With or Without

If I said "Philly Cheese Wit" to them, I'd expect what you said... whiz with onions.

dammit I keep coming back to this post (I like to see how cultured people are when it comes to "philly" cheesesteaks) and I REALLY could go for a cheesesteak now...wish I didnt have work tomorrow or Id be heading on down to Philly:thumb:

Wiz wit for me!

D0ughB0y · Feb 6, 2012

Personally? I'm a Tony Luke's guy and I do Provolone with Extra Onions

Dragonfly · Feb 7, 2012

That looks SOOOOO good! I've never had a "real" one before, this looks great!

the more time you spend with people from around philly the more likely you will hit a better place than pats or geno's... they have their place historically but there are some real gems in the city...
