Tomahawk Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich

Tomahawk Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich? YES! This recipe from Graham Sherman does just that and Graham takes it even further: “In fact, it should be absolutely MANDATORY to use Tomahawk ribeye steaks for Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches! This cook was an exciting first use of the Yoder Smokers stainless steel griddle on my 24×48 flat top charcoal grill. I ran charcoal under the griddle on the left side of the cooker, then to the right I built an oak and hickory wood fire under the grill grates for the veggies. Flame-charred peppers and onions are a MASSIVE win on this sandwich. I used a Vietnamese Bánh Mi baguette as they’re so soft inside and perfectly crunchy outside. Provolone cheese two ways was also key! Slices on the griddle, melted into the peppers and steak, then I made a gooey provolone cream sauce to drizzle on the finished sandwich! GAME CHANGER!!”
