Southern Style Cheese Steak for Dinner

Southern Style Cheese Steak

Tonight, the Mr. is making one of my all-time favorite meals and I just had to share.  This is our play on the famous Philly Cheese Steak.  Since this is a Mr. and Mrs. original, the measurements are our best guesstimates since the cook doesn't use measuring cups.  That's why he cooks and I bake.  I need measurements and precision, not a "pinch" or a "season to taste."  I did manage to get a few digits out of him, so while they are not exact measurements, it'll do!  So let's get cooking!

You'll need:
2 ribeye steaks (partially frozen but soft enough to cut through)
2 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbs Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 yellow onion
1 tsp Kosher salt
1 tsp pepper
1 Tbs white sugar
2 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil (or EVOO as they say on the Food Network)
8 slices of pepperjack cheese
4 sub buns (we like Harp's Jumbo Sub Buns!)
  1. Slice steak very thin (as thin as possible), season with Worcestershire sauce and Montreal Steak Seasoning, and set aside.
  2. Chop your onion and season with salt, pepper, and sugar.
  3. Saute onion on medium-low heat in EVOO  until very tender and golden brown (approximately 15-20 minutes), move to a bowl and set aside.
  4. Place your meat in the same pan you just used to cook the onion and brown on all sides on medium-high heat until cooked through (less than 5 minutes since you sliced it so thin).
  5. Add the onions back into the pan and place your cheese slices on top (it should melt pretty quickly to give you that melted cheesy goodness in each bite).
  6. Divide into 4 servings and serve on toasted sub buns.
