how to make Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

Ingredients :

1 pound lean ground beef
2 tablespoons butter
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
8 ounces brown mushrooms, minced
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup beef broth
8 ounces Provolone Cheese Slices, chopped
6 brioche hamburger buns

Directions :

Begin by heating a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it develops a deep brown crust on the bottom before breaking it apart.
Continue cooking until about 50% of the beef has a rich crust. Remove the beef from the skillet, leaving behind any rendered fat.
Add the butter to the skillet along with the diced onions, bell peppers, and minced mushrooms. Allow the vegetables to brown for 1-2 minutes without stirring.
Then, give them a good stir and let them brown for another 1-2 minutes.
Return the beef to the skillet with the vegetables. In a small cup, whisk together the beef broth and cornstarch until smooth.
Pour this mixture into the skillet along with the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
Let the mixture cook until it thickens and becomes slightly less liquidy, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped Provolone cheese until it’s perfectly melted.
Serve the mixture piled high on toasted brioche buns.
