My Dad used to make the best cheesesteaks for us growing up. Every time we had a big sports game on TV, that was the meal. Over time with work and more kids, it got harder for Dad to make those delicious Philly Cheesesteaks. I am happy to have discovered this recipe so now I can carry on the tradition without taking too much time away from my kids or work.
