I like onions. Are they not a cheesesteak staple? I like them on cold sammies as well. Probably not with mortadella. And agree I prefer my steak chopped up. 

They are. I think they're just talking about raw onions on a hoagie though....but I still think that's crazy talk. 

Raw onions on a hoagie is the worst part of a hoagie. That and and shitty shredded lettuce.

You order without?
I like both of those things.  Prefer different lettuce but shredded berg works OK.

My wife used to add lettuce and tomatoes to cheesesteak.   That is bullshit.  Lol.

I have to have shredded lettuce and a very little onions.

@F Me In The Brain-did you tell you wife that? But, that is not a cheesesteak  for me.

Hehe.  Yes, she knows I think it is a BS cheesesteak.  She doesn't care that I think that, which is correct....people should eat what they like.

Put ketchup on your hot dog! Who cares?

Some people like mayo on bologna sandwiches. Mock away, it's all good fun!

I would agree that if I am in Philly I would order it the right way. Cooper wit. But I also like it when it is dressed like a Po Boy. Maybe just call it a grilled roast beef sandwich instead. Some delis do that up here in NY. Boars Head roast beef heated up on the flat top. Not a true philly but still very good. And I put Kewpie mayo on almost everything!

I went to college in upstate NY. There was a greek run sandwich shop near campus that made amazing sandwiches. They did the mayo, raw onions, lettuce, tomato, salt and pepper, and a toasted roll for a cheesesteak. May not be an authentic Philly, but it was really good.

Where’d you go that school upstate?

Syracuse and the place was called Zorba's.

Cafe Carmela....absolutely legit. This is from the Huntington Valley location.

Like all good cheesesteaks, the meat to cheese ratio is perfect and the bread.....oh, the bread.

Ah man I could go for a cheesesteak after shoveling this afternoon.

Dude, my kids live less than 10 minutes from there. This will absolutely be our next lunch destination. I'm assuming this is the Don Cheech with Cooper Sharp? My boy will be psyched...kid loves his steaks!

Hey Wobbie, I don't think it's anything particularly Philly related. I'm assuming it's a vague reference to the character in The Godfather named Don Ciccio? Could be totally wrong though. Maybe I'll inquire when I visit.

And Cooper Sharp is a better melting style of American cheese...

went to the website….yeah, just a name with cooper sharp cheese. if the website price is current, it’s quite reasonable. 👍

Field trip!

not unsurprisingly, it’s hard to find a good cheesesteak in the wasteland of salt lake city. moochie’s (“straight outta philly) is good. we went to a total dive bar tonight where some philly-type guy took over the kitchen. his mom and dad bring out the food. mom said they’re from not far from F’me’s crib in cherry hill. I’m guessing they weren’t quite so affluent. anyway, pretty good philly for SLC. not quite as robust as juggler’s last post. check the menu….are these philly staples? the last one has rabe but I thought that was a pork thing in philly?
