By Diana Moore


Several fitness experts and other health enthusiasts will tell you that a Philly cheese steak Las Vegas is bad for you, but they're just so darn good that individuals both living in Las Vegas and Philadelphia tend to overlook that trivial point. They are, obviously, cheese steaks.

A cheese steak is a lengthy, crusty roll filled up with very finely chopped up sauted rib-eye beef and melted cheese. Generally, the cheese of preference is Cheez Whiz, but American and provolone are standard substitutions. The art of cheese steak preparation is based on the harmony of flavors, textures and what is often referred to as the "drip" factor. Other toppings can include fried onions, sauted fresh mushrooms, ketchup and hot or sweet peppers.

Some sandwich stores also provide a cheese steak hoagie, a hybrid edition that combines the cheese steak with cold hoagie dressings like lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. Cheese beef are fast, portable and easily available at steak stores, delis, food trucks, pizzerias and even some high-end dining places throughout the area. Everybody believes that the cheese steak, the celebrated Philadelphia sandwich invented by Pat Olivieri in 1930, should be made out of chopped beef and melted cheese. The degree to which said beef is chopped and the type of cheese to be melted, however, is where there remains lots of debates among cheese steak enthusiasts.

Most widely used choice for topping a steak sandwich is Cheez Whiz because it is flavorful and easy to use.

Second is Provolone which is an Italian cheese that is made primarily in northern Italy. It is a semi-hard cheese that is produced from full-fat cow's milk. Provolone is made in many different shapes, however it is most commonly round. Also being used is American cheese which was originally made from a blend of cheddar and Colby cheeses. The cheese is orange, yellow or white in shade and it is frequently square in shape. It is often picked for making steak sandwiches because it melts easily. Last type of cheese commonly used is Cheddar cheese which is a hard cheese that is yellow or white in color. Cheddar cheese is made the world over, but it was initially made in the English village of Cheddar in Somerset.
