  • The origin and definition of an authentic Philly cheesesteak

    Note: Although this post was published in 2013 it was updated and revised in April of 2018. Philly’s Bar & Grill has undergone an expansion and is now going by the name of Philly’s Bar & Lounge. They appear to still be offering Philly cheesesteaks.

    I derived the following information from: RecipeTips.com, Cheese.com, GotCheese.net, HuffingtonPost.com, and MentalFloss.com.
