Tender chuck roast is robustly seasoned with a few of my secret weapon flavoring agents — Coca-Cola among others! It may sound strange to you, but I promise the mix of ingredients results in the juiciest, most flavorful slow cooker cheesesteaks EVER. Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe:
How to Make Philly Cheesesteaks in a Crockpot
Crockpot Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are incredibly easy to make. The ingredients list is very basic and I love that the slow cooker does most of the work for you! Here’s an overview of how to make this Philly Cheesesteak recipe (full measurements found in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post):
Step 1: Sear the beef. Heat the oil over high heat in a large cast iron skillet. Using tongs or two forks, sear the meat on all sides until browned and transfer to a 6 qt. (or larger) slow cooker.
Step 2: Add remaining roast ingredients to the slow cooker. Add all of the braising liquid and seasonings and give them a stir. Lastly, add the onions on top.
Step 3: Cook. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours for a 3-pound roast, and 6 hours for a larger roast.Step 4: Slice the roast. Remove the roast to a cutting board. Thinly slice the roast using a very sharp knife then add back to the slow cooker.
Step 5: Add the bell pepper and mushrooms. Give the meat and veggies a stir and continue to cook for an additional 45 minutes. Meanwhile, toast the hoagie rolls.
Step 6: Toast the hoagie rolls. Split the rolls and lay them cut side up on a large baking tray. Bake for 5 minutes to toast the rolls. After they’re toasted, spread each top and bottom half with optional spiced mayonnaise (ingredients in the recipe card below).
Step 7: Assemble the cheesesteaks. Top the toasted rolls by using tongs to get a good mixture of sliced beef, onions, and peppers.
To use the cheese, fold each slice in half and use two slices per hoagie.
Step 8: Melt the cheese in the oven. Return the baking tray to the oven and bake until the cheese is completely melted. You may serve the remaining liquid as a dip for the sandwiches, if desired.
