Recipe: 

Cheesesteak Sloppy Joe Sliders

Ingredients

·       1 pound ground beef or turkey

·       1 Tbsp. olive oil

·       1/4 tsp. salt

·       1/4 tsp. pepper

·       1 sweet onion, sliced thin

·       1 green pepper sliced thin

·       1/2 cup sliced mushrooms

·       2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

·       1/4 cup soy sauce

·       1 Tbsp. ketchup

·       16 Klosterman Buns, toasted

Cheese Sauce

·       1/2 Tbsp. flour

·       1/2 Tbsp. butter

·       3/4 cup milk

·       1/4 tsp. mustard powder

·       1 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese

·       2 Tbsp. parmesan cheese, grated

·       Salt and pepper

Instructions

1.     In large skillet over medium-high heat add the olive oil, brown the meat, about 5-6 minutes. Add the onion, mushrooms and green pepper, cooking another 5-10 minutes until the onions start to become tender. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and ketchup.  Season with salt and pepper, then bring up to a bubble and cook about 2 minutes.

2.     While the meat is cooking, make the cheese sauce. Melt the butter in a small sauce pan over low heat. Stir in the flour and cook about 1 minute. Whisk in milk and mustard powder, cooking on medium-high heat, bring up to a bubble and let thicken, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in the provolone cheese, parmesan cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper.  Stir until the cheese has melted.

3.     To serve, place a scoopful of the meat and pepper mixture on the bottom of the slider buns, then top with the cheese sauce and add the top of the bun.
