Campfire Philly Cheesesteak

By mnhenselen

These are always a huge hit whenever we go camping but are just as easily enjoyed at home using your grill or oven.

Ingredients

• 1 large loaf French bread
• 1/4 cup garlic butter {I make my own using butter and garlic powder}
• 2 cups onion & green pepper, sliced and cooked (I slice and cook this before camping then just pack the cooked mixture into the cooler.)
• 2 tablespoons butter or oil (for cooking onions and pepper)
• 1/4 cup oyster sauce (for cooking onions and pepper)
• 21 ounces (600g) roast beef, sliced
• 16 ounces (500g) provolone cheese, sliced (Mozzarella would work too).
• Aluminum foil
• Cooking spray

Preparation

Step 1

Start by cutting slices into the bread about 1.5 inches apart and not all the way through to the bottom. Butter the insides of each slice.

Next drop a large spoonful of the pepper mixture into every other cut. You can precook the onions & peppers buy sauteeing them in butter and the oytster sauce until just cooked through and pack in the cooler to be added just before adding the loaf to the hot coals.

Then layer with roast beef and cheese. Top each slice with extra cheese.

Tip: I like to spray the inside of the aluminum foil with non-stick cooking spray so that the ooey, gooey melty cheese doesn’t all stick to the inside of the packet.

Wrap the entire loaf in aluminum foil. You may need to use two layers to reach all the way around the sandwich. Place the package near the hot coals of a fire {but not IN the fire}. You want to heat the sandwich all the way through so that the cheese all melts. This usually takes thirty minutes for us. Alternately you can put it in a bar-b-cue on low or in the oven to warm the ingredients all the way through.
