Learn what makes a great cheesesteak at Box Hill!
While many customers come to Box Hill for our world-famous crab cakes, our large cheesesteaks are another favorite! The sub may look easy to make, but using the right ingredients is essential for making a great cheesesteak. Come into Box Hill to try one of our signature cheesesteaks for yourself to see what all the hype is about!
The Bread
As with any sandwich or sub, a cheesesteak is nothing without a delicious base of bread. Some people prefer their rolls toasted while others like a soft and chewy roll. Either way makes a good cheesesteak, as long as the bread has a balance of being a little chewy, not too airy, and not too tough.
The Meat
When you order a cheesesteak, you should expect to get a sub filled generously with shredded steak. At Box Hill, we always want to satisfy our customers, and pile on as much meat as the sub can handle! You should never feel hungry after eating a good cheesesteak.
Cheese
This is where it gets tricky, as people have very strong opinions about which type of cheese should be on a cheesesteak. In many tourist spots in Philly, you will likely find bright yellow Cheez Whiz. In more local shops, you’ll find more traditional cheese such as American and provolone.
Toppings
A traditional simple cheesesteak will just have fried onions and maybe a few hot or sweet peppers for added flavor. However, you can add practically any topping to a cheesesteak and it will taste delicious, including basics like tomatoes, mushrooms, and lettuce, or more untraditional additions such as pizza sauce or sriracha.
