Not Philly Cheesesteaks...

OK phillyjazz....these are not philly cheesesteaks! Just throwing that disclaimer out there. I found "Carne Picada" from Wally World earlier today. I've never seen it before, but it looked like a good candidate for steak and cheese sandwiches.



Decent price too for the amount of of shaved/diced steak you get....



I'm not sure what cut this came from...I'm thinking a bunch of different cuts probably...similar to hamburger meat.

I ended up seasoning it with a good amount of Sea Salt, Cracked Pepper and Worcestershire Sauce.



Then threw it in the Wok along with a couple of small onions.



It put off a good amount of liquid, so I ended up taking a ladel and spooning out most of that so I could get some caramelization on the steak and onions.





It was still piping hot once we spooned it out of the Wok, so we just threw some sliced American Cheese on after the fact.



Served up on some French Bread along with some Mayo. Pretty good quick, cheap and easy Steak and Cheese Sandwich. Still have a lot leftover too, so I'll be having these for lunches this week.

Dyal,

Looks like you're going to have some pretty good leftovers

That looks good Just another reason for me to get me a wok and a spider!

Nice looking cheese steaks. I'll hit one of those any day.

I've got the munchies again. There ya go, Dyal, -- a South Carolina Cheesesteak! Oh yeah, now we're talkin'! I know that "carne picada" translates as "minced meat." It could very well be from skirt steak or even tripe. Luv your choice of cheese for that. Save a leftover for me!

Never heard of picada either... you made it look real tasty!

Mmmmmm.... that looks good. I'd have eaten some of that South Carolina Cheez Steak. Very curious as to that cut of meat. Never heard of it before.

Thanks fellas'! I brought 2 sandwiches to work today for lunch. I was going to have 1 today and 1 tomorrow, but I just scarfed both of them down.

Meat, onions, and cheese...you just can't go wrong with that combo.

You keep eating like that and how are your scrawny chicken legs ever going to support you?

I don't have chicken legs, dang it! I loathe you, Griffen.

And how do you even stand on those small feet? isn't it hared to balance? Yeah I saw the picture this morning.

My feet are size 12... Bad camera angle.

Any idea where the meat was from ?? In Philly there is a debate between rib eye and top of the round. I favor rib eye. Then again, I also like cheese whiz.
