What Is a Philly Cheesesteak?

The Philly cheesesteak got its start in 1930s Philadelphia. In its most traditional state, a Philly cheesesteak is a hoagie roll covered in thinly sliced griddled beefsteak, sautéed onions, and melted cheese (usually provolone, American, or Cheez Whiz). If you see it on menus throughout the country, cheesesteaks have additions such as peppers and mushrooms. As for condiments, mayonnaise and ketchup are commonly used.
