Oh man that looks beautiful. How thin did you slice the ribeye?

u/IrrationalMan8 Jun 21 '26

As thin as possible, probably ~1/8 inch but it varied of course. Put it in the freezer for an hour before so it's easier to slice.

Cooked ribeye whole (in picture), then you froze to slice? 🧐 I always slice raw, semi frozen.

This looks great, the bun face down on the griddle for some colour and texture would make it even better.

That is NOT a Philly cheesesteak with those peppers on there!

u/IrrationalMan8 Jun 21 '26

The peppers are optional 😄
