And the onions should be nicely sauteed, not left on the low heat side of the grill for eons.

The American cheese should be melted.

I hope you also posted this to your Fakebook page, since all your "Friends" need to know too.

After all, isn't that what all narcissists do?

Nope, only have LinkedIn and that's for work.

Some use PatNet.

No ketchup? ;-)

There is a Pizza Steak which uses Marinara, along with Pepperoni.

Ketchup users get kicked out of the shop.

Note how the thick baked shell of the roll keeps in all the awesome meat juices. Subway Roll doesn't cut it. Too wimpy.

Your choices for cheesesteak: Onions Y/N. Peppers: spicy, mild or none. Cheese Y/N if yes, then 1. Cheese Wiz (say: wit wiz) or 2. Provolone or (secret menu) 3. Smoked Provolone! Pat's in Philly is a good place to get the true Cheesesteak.
You do see some regional variations, of course.

And then you have your Broccoli Rabe with Sausage grinder, and meatball subs and ....I do love some things from the east coast!!

That looks fantastic

Pat's in Philly is good, but there is a place called Steve's Prince of Steaks that blows away everything IMO. They have an American Whiz that is heavenly. But as far as sandwiches go in general, Philadelphia cannot be beat. I grew up 10 minutes from NYC. Philly Roast Pork and Broccoli Rabe and Sharp Provolone is the best sandwich, but not nearly as popular or well known.

Provolone not American cheese.

I had a cheese steak yesterday. From a Neighborhood Corner Store. A little kitchen in the back makes great Fried Chicken and decent Philly Steaks.

Philly is not a safe place to hang out in.

You need to find a place which isn't a generic sandwich shop, which makes a good Cheesesteak.

1. Cheese Wiz (say: wit wiz)

No, wiz wit is very heavy and sits like a rock in the stomach. Sure, it's got that instant gratification thing (since it meshes with all the greases) but for good cheese, American is still the best choice unless you want the Pizza Steak where Provolone is imperative for that taste combo with 'Roni & Marinara.

Here's a pretty descent one, only a couple of 'burbs outside of Boston. And you won't get mugged on the way to picking up your sandwich.

Those cheese steaks look like a sex robot's tweetie when it hasn't been washed for a month.

Evidently there are some escapees from Philadelphia in S. Florida because I see these sandwiches here and there on menus.

I would try one but I need someone to eat the other half.

If done right, meaning no Whiz & a good "non-Subway" roll, even when it's cold, it should still taste pretty good so it's half during opening ~11AM and the rest for an early dinner, ~5 PM.

There are plenty of spots in Philly that are safe. Just like you insist on screwing whores in Canada, you haven't had the real thing unless it's in Philly.

John's Roast Pork, and their Cheesesteaks are American cheese standardized.
