tried with siracha instead of cheese and it was ELITE
fkn delicious
Hey super excited to try this, i need all the high calorie protein meals i can get
this is not cheesesteak sloppy joes this is Dog Food For Boys. delicious. i thickened the sauce with a lot of flour for extra carbs (and because the cornstarch wasn’t doing it for me), and i threw in some pickled banana peppers for some much needed acidity. if you douse it in Maggi it’s even better, since the salt doesn’t really come through on it even with plenty extra.
