Oak Smoked Cheesesteak

Although this long time Philadelphia classic needed no reinvention, we couldn’t resist to the temptation of making our own Grilled version. While staying true to the ingredients used in a classic cheesesteak recipe, our take incorporates wood-fired flavors and a raging hot volcanic grilling stone used as a cooking surface. Make this cheesesteak recipe even more authentic by substituting provolone cheese for a healthy dose of Cheez Whiz and prepare yourself for a memorable sandwich-eating experience.

Preparation

1. Leave ribeye roast 45 minutes to 1 hour in the freezer to make easier to slice;
2. Preheat your grill to high heat, between 400 and 450°F, with your grilling stone inside;
3. Cut whole ribeye roast across the grain into ⅛ thick slices, or as thin as you can; Season the meat with garlic salt and ground black pepper to taste;
4. Sauté the onions on your grilling stone with olive oil until golden brown; Move onions toward the edge of the stone to make room for the beef and spread the meat evenly across the stone; Add a handfull of wood chips onto hot coals and close the lid; Cook 4 to 6 minutes;
5. Combine grilled meat and onions and continue to cook until desired doneness; Divide into 3 to 4 servings then place slices of provolone cheese on top of each portion; Close the lid and wait 30 seconds for the cheese to melt.
6. With a barbecue spatula, carefully transfer each meat and onion servings into a hoagie roll. Serve directly.
