Oven Baked Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches made for a crowd in just 30 minutes. Hot and freshly baked sandwiches for a crowd with none of the hard work!
Oven Baked Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are one of those weeknight meals your family will crave and you’ll love because it’s just 15 minutes of prep and fifteen minutes of time in the oven. Just long enough to bake off a batch of frozen french fries and dinner is ready!
The best part of these is that the beef cooks through just enough that its pink in the middle while still having that deeply browned crust on the outside. Plus if you want to save them for later you can wrap them in foil and freeze them (just save the top piece, add it back on top before wrapping). Then bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes when you’re ready to enjoy them.
We’re huge fan of sandwiches here. Nothing is an easier lunch for my husband who likes handheld foods so he can work/chase kids around while getting a bite to eat. Plus we love to make sandwiches in big batches and freeze them.
Sandwich freezing tips:
- Don’t add lettuce/tomato/other temperature sensitive ingredients. Onions and bell peppers are fine.
- Line the top and bottom with cheese to protect the bread from all the juices of the food.
- Wrap with foil tightly, the less air inside, the less freezer burn.
- If you have a dipping sauce, add it to a small ziplock and drape it over the sandwich as you wrap (carefully). When reheating you can just put the ziplock in a hot glass of water.
- Bake IN the foil, it’ll get toasty while keeping its moisture.

Tools Used in the Making of these Oven Baked Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches:
Cast Iron Skillet: This is my most used pan in my kitchen, heavy, keeps heat well and gives the BEST sear ever.
Chef’s Knife: This knife is one of the three most used tools in my kitchen (tongs and my pig tail flipper are the other two). I love it, I’ve had it for almost 10 years and it is as sharp today as the day I got it. (left column, second from the top). Mind you I love it this much even though I have a ridiculously expense knife set as well.
Worcestershire Sauce: Do not leave this out or sub it for anything else, this is a main flavor component and this brand is my absolute go-to.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ribeye steak
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 green bell pepper sliced or diced
- ½ yellow onion sliced
- 12 slices provolone cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Marinate the steak (just in the time you're preparing the vegetables and getting the pan hot) with the Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.
- Add the butter to your cast iron skillet and heat on medium high.
- Add the steak and brown well without moving for 3-5 minutes, until a good crust forms.
- Flip and cook three to five minutes or until a similar crust forms.
- Remove the steak from the pan and add the veggies.
- Slice the steak while the vegetables are cooking.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.
- Cut a well into 6 hoagie rolls and cut your 12 slices of provolone cheese in half.
- Add two half pieces to the bottom of the hoagie, add some steak, bell peppers and onions and top with 2 additional half slices.
- Add the sandwiches to a baking pan and cook for 15 minutes or until cheese it browned.
How many hoagie rolls do you use? Do you use 6 whole rolls for 2 per serving or 6 half rolls for 1 per serving? Thanks.
1 hoagie roll per sandwich. Recipe serves 6.
Roll is not cut in half. Let us know what you thought of the Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches when you get a chance!
Thanks for asking Barbara!
Absolutely delicious! I did add some sauteed mushrooms at my husband’s request. This recipe is a definite keeper and the website is a new favorite of mine when searching for meal inspiration and ideas. Thank you for sharing your culinary creations 🙂
Being born & raised in Philadelphia, I have to assert that you’ve created a lot of interesting recipes labeled “Philly” that are unlikely to be found in my beloved city and so might be better named Philly-style. That said, this recipe looks like it would give many Philly cheese steak shops a run for their money. It definitely looks to be of a higher caliber fare than you would get at the tourist trap cheesesteak shops (I won’t call out any names). Nicely done!
Thats amazing to hear! Thank you!
I made this last night I’m in the UK so guessed the quantities and added some finely chopped gherkins and a picked chilli and it was lovely my husband said that was really nice so will definitely be making it again
I would love to try this out it’s my favorite food….I want this recipe like asap..
How and and at what point did you cut the steak?
You’ll want to cut the steak after cooking it. 🙂
This sounds super yummy! How long do you marinate the steak? All of the ingredients work very well together, so I can’t wait to try these. I’m sure that my guys will love them, as will I. Thanks!
Just five minutes, long enough to prep the rest of your ingredients and get the pan hot and ready to sear. I’ll update the recipe with that, thanks! 🙂
I am so craving one of these right now, YUM!
