These Philly cheesesteak sloppy joes are meaty, cheesy, and packed with classic cheesesteak flavor—made easy with ground beef, peppers, onions, and melty mozzarella, all piled onto toasted brioche buns.
Add the ground beef and brown until a deep brown crust appears before breaking the beef apart.
1 lb Ground Beef
Remove the beef (you can leave the fat) and add the butter and the onions and bell peppers. Let brown for 1-2 minutes before stirring, then let brown for another 1-2 minutes before stirring again.
1 Tablespoon Butter, 1 Onion, 1 Bell Pepper
Remove any excess grease. Add the beef back into the pan.
In a small measuring cup mix the beef broth and cornstarch together.
1 Tablespoon Cornstarch, 1 Cup Beef Broth
Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and whisk then pour the beef broth/cornstarch mixture into the pan.
2 Tablespoons Ketchup, 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt, ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
Cook until the mixture is mostly soaked up so it’s not as watery, about 3-5 minutes.
Turn off the heat, add in the cheese.
8 oz Cheddar Cheese
In a pan, heat a little more butter over medium high heat and toast the buns then remove to a plate. Serve meat on toasted brioche buns.
