Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by thinly slicing the ribeye steak against the grain for maximum tenderness. Slice the onion and bell peppers into uniform strips.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat until melted. Add onions and bell peppers; sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and caramelized.
  3. Push vegetables aside, increase heat, add ribeye steak, and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until just browned.
  4. Mix the sautéed steak and vegetables together in the skillet, stirring until well combined.
  5. Layer slices of provolone cheese over the steak mixture. Cover and let it melt for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Scoop portions of the filling into each hoagie roll. Optionally drizzle with cheese sauce and add hot sauce.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy while hot! Pair with crispy fries or coleslaw for a complete meal.
