Tips

  • Use a seeded roll for the bread.
  • Only use Cheese Whiz or American cheese; Cooper Sharp is recommended.
  • Onions are the only acceptable topping; avoid bell peppers.
  • Shred the ribeye steak finely while cooking, do not chop it into thick pieces.
  • Season the meat simply with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of garlic salt to let the ribeye flavor speak for itself.
  • Toast the buttered roll gently in the oven.
