What I would change next time? Nothing!
For your own version, I recommend:.
- Omit the jalapeño if you prefer them to not be spicy.
- If you would prefer to use garlic powder rather than minced garlic, simply add about a teaspoon directly on top of the ribeye as you are sautéing it! 🙂

philly cheesesteak sliders (makes four sliders)
Ingredients
For meat and veggies
- 1 T. unsalted butter
- 1/2 green pepper roughly chopped
- 1/2 white or yellow onion roughly chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 jalapeno minced, remove seeds for less heat
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 8 oz. boneless ribeye shaved as thinly as you can
- 4 slider buns
For cheese sauce
- 1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1 Tbsp. flour
- 1/3 cup milk I use 2%
- 1/2 cup extra sharp cheddar grated
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
For sliders
- Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat.
- Add green pepper, cook 7-8 minutes until starting to soften. Add salt and pepper to season.
- Once the green pepper starts to soften, add onion. Cook 5-7 minutes until it becomes translucent and also starts to soften.
- Turn the heat down to low-medium, and add jalapeño and garlic. Mix in well with the peppers and onions.
- Cook 2-3 minutes, continuing to mix all ingredients into one another. Then push the entire veggie mixture to one side of the sauté pan.
- On the empty side, add the shaved ribeye, a little more salt, and pepper. Cook 1-2 minutes until mostly browned. Combine with veggies, and you're ready to serve!
For cheese sauce
- Melt butter over medium-low heat. Add flour, and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Add milk slowly, and whisk to combine fully.
- Bring to a quick boil, then immediately turn down to a simmer a couple of minutes, until it starts to thicken. Sprinkle in the cheese and whisk until blended.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Slice the slider buns in half. Top with meat and veggies, then cheese sauce. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
2. Seriously, slice it as thin as you possibly can. Or better yet, have your butcher do it for you. (You'll be so thankful for him/her!)
3. Omit the jalapeño if you do not like it spicy.
4. Substitute about a half to a full teaspoon of garlic powder for minced garlic if you like!
5. THIS RECIPE MAKES (4) SLIDERS THAT HAVE 2 OZ. EACH OF RIBEYE. Simply double the recipe to make more! 🙂

Philly Cheesesteak sliders are comfort food around our house. Perfect for football season which is just around the corner. I’m talking high school football where we are on Friday nights.
Absolutely!! They’re some of my favorite comfort food and game day food!
ohh this is right up my street! sounds lush! 😀
thanks, Sarah! it’s quite tasty if I can say so! 🙂
I love philly cheesesteaks. There’s this one place that sells it that’s about 30 minutes away from us and we drive all the way there when the craving hits. So excited to see this recipe and try to make them at home 🙂
I totally get the craving and driving thing! There’s one place in my city that has the best ones … not quite thirty minutes away, but nothing satisfies like that specific cheesesteak!
Love philly cheesesteaks! Looks fantastic!
Thank you, Jessica! Me too!
Love Philly cheese steaks! Saved to try. Thanks for posting!
My pleasure, Miranda!
These sliders look so tasty and easy! And I wouldn’t dare to omit the jalapenos 😀
Haha. Right? I’m such a sucker for spicy stuff! And thank you, Ahu!!
WOW!!! Philly cheesesteaks are one of my favorite foods too. These are adorable and look incredible. Your photos are perfect!
HUGE compliment, Rahcel! Thank you so much!! They are super adorable, but they don’t last long 🙂
Philly cheesteaks are my favorite! This recipe gives me the same big taste with a small bite. Pinned!
Thank you so much, LaKisha!!
Yum yum! I enjoy cooking but have never made these. How do you shave the ribeye or can you purchase it that way?
I freeze mine for just a bit, then thinly slice it using a chef’s knife. BUT, before going that route, ask your butcher to shave it for you … this will save you a ton of time and effort! Just purchase an 8 oz. ribeye from the butcher shop, then ask them to do it. Hopefully they will!
This looks amazing and something my husband would really enjoy. The cheese sauce recipe alone would be useful for certain dished we make too. Great recipe.
Thank you, Lisa! I really could use cheese sauce on maybe everything. Good thing it’s so easy to make!
I’m a Philadelphian who can’t WAIT to try this recipe! Looks delicious!!E
That’s awesome, Erika! Thank you for such a great compliment! Is it bad that I thought about booking a flight to Philly recently just so I could maybe binge on cheesesteaks for a few days? 🙂
