It was a Philly night...philly cheesesteaks, that is!

Seriously a great meal for when you are craving some meat!

Philly Cheese Steaks

thinly sliced beef (this time we used beef that was already pre-cut for stir fry...worked great)
1 red bell pepper

1 green bell pepper
1 onion

handful or two of mushrooms, chopped
provolone cheese
garlic pepper

salt

Cut up bell peppers and onions into thin slices. Chop up mushrooms into slices or large dices. With olive oil saute them together until tender, adding salt and garlic pepper to spice. Remove from pan. Cook your meat until nearly done and then add in the veggies. You can always test it if it needs more spices too. Once this is done, open up french rolls on a cookie sheet but try not to separate completely and broil until toasted. We then take it out, add the meat and veggie mix and top with the provolone cheese and put it back in the broiler to melt the cheese. Take it out, add a little A1 (if you like it) and smear some good ole mayonnaise in the bread...mmmm.

secret to a great burger

Here are how we like our hamburgers...flavorful and juicy! Our favorite way to prepare them is by adding in some softened butter and sprinkle on some ranch packet seasoning while you are making the patty. They turn our so great and not dry inside like if you were going to cook them as is. Aren't all great things made with real butter?

Pork chops--How do you like yours?

I have, for the most part, left the pork chop cooking to my hubby because I know he does it well (and he doesn't mind it, I might add). Lately, I have taken it on to be a better pork chop cooker myself and last night they turned out great! Yay! I used thyme, garlic pepper, season salt and I can't remember if there was another spice in there. Anyway, it got me to thinking...how does everyone else like to spice their pork chops (or other meats too)? Last week for our pork chops we used garam masala, cinnamon, and a little nutmeg...sooo tasty too. If you would like, leave a comment and share your favorite way (dry spices or otherwise). Thanks!
