Miss Caphat is going to plotz when she sees this bit of pedantry is running to 26 pages.
Have a good weekend all!

Is a cheese steak basically a steak with cheese shoved on top? Some people do that here I guess, although it can't be good for the old arteries.
no

actual Wisconsin cheese that's not bargain bin is really, really good

um, not really chopped steak at all...shaved steak. chopped steak sounds like it's in chunks. were you paying attention at all when you were here

Are cheesesteaks to be had every where, like we have kebab places, (maybe there to) or is it mainly a Philly thing?
Miss Caphat

Basically I think so. The chese described was pretty artificial sounding though. Grilled strips of meat and maybe vege, on bread, then triangles of whatever type of chese, put on top.
nope. it's shaved steak, can be served with fried peppers & onions, mushrooms, cheese that's mixed in at the end, it's all cooked on a flat grill and stirred around, then placed into a long sub roll. If you have all these things in your sandwich it's called a "steak bomb"
I would add an image but they always look disgusting. tasty though. and now that's what I want for dinner. thanks a lot

I consider myself a big lover of cheese. From gruyere to brie to stilton to all kinds of stuff.
But I also love plastic cheese in it's place. Like on a burger.

You can't just say no, you have to explain!!!
I need to know
I have to say I am thoroughly enjoying the silliness of this thread but also fully aware that saying all Americans like plastic cheese and have a penchant for firearms is the same as saying all English people love the Royal Family and/or binge drinking and/of only eat sausage and mash and Yorkshire pudding.
Both our countries are made up of a wonderful blend of cultures
But it isn't frying...
It sorta makes sense in my mind. Mind you having cooked on an electric hob for years, I sometimes splash a bit of water into the pan, to help things along. (I don't use much oil.) SO I tend to think of that stewing, frying, steaming through thing as broiling. As opposed to, er just frying.

OK. I think I get what you mean,
Occasionally I will cook cabbage on a gas hob, start it off with butter and a little bacon/pancettam then poru in a little bit of water and put the lid on so the cabbage softens.
That is kinda like what I would think of broiling but not what the yanks would.,

Binge drinking ftw! Especially since they set the definition so low. Sausage mash and Yorkshire pud is toad in the hole, which I do eat depends on Sunday leftoversYou can't just say no, you have to explain!!!

I did explain
it's actually Americans who all love the Royal Family, sadly.

I love toad-in-the-hole but rarely eat it as, even though I am not that calorie conscious, it is really very unhealthy.
I do eat a lot of what would be labelled "very British food" but I also eat a lot of pasta and curries and middle eastern style food.

If some of the curry houses in Kent are anything to go by, a lot of British Indians have a weird thing about Princess Di too

there was a lady who looked a bit like Di who lived down the road from us when I was a kid. all the other moms in the neighborhood wanted to be her. she was also painfully shy.

So many particulars. So many questions.

Actually, might as well flounce.
I'm guessing - Florida
and if I'm correct in the State then why holiday there:-
- Sonny's pit barbecue
- Gainsville Drag Strip
- Don Garlits Drag Racing Museum
- Black Angus's restaurant - Kissimmee
- Some mouse theme park
- An active swimming pool thing
- Something to do with a film studio
Poor guess. I have sworn never to take the family to Mauschwitz. The correct answer was Belize, whch shuffled off the imperial yoke 30 years ago and now appears to be a US satrapy. The mosquitoes are preserved for authenticity.

Wait, you mean you can get cheese steaks at Subway in the UK?
also, you don't have to have green peppers, you can order it with any or none of the toppings.

Yep. The pepper is in with the steak at subway so you do have to have it unless you want to spend hours picking it out.

isn't the point of Subway that every sandwich comes made to order with exactly what you want on it?
Miss Caphat

also, the peppers and onions should be grilled (fried) what a travesty!
eta and the steak looks too thickly sliced. this is not a real cheese steak, I'm sorry to say.

Christ, you're exhausting! Yes that is the point of subway but I wouldn't be asking for meatballs with no marinara sauce either. It's mixed together. The pepper and onion is chopped small and I guess, cooked in with the steak. You still choose your bread, other toppings and sauces. I am not Subway, I can't change this.isn't the point of Subway that every sandwich comes made to order with exactly what you want on it?
Miss Caphat

no, it's generally cooked altogether, at the same time, to order. I'm not being exhausting, it's just not an actual cheese steak. I'm sure I could get one at my local Subway, not "mixed together" if I so chose. Besides, it doesn't even look like the peppers & onions are cooked.

Why do Subways all have the same revolting smell?
