# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Everything you love about an actual cheesesteak but in scoopable form that somehow tastes even better than the original sandwich
  • Feeds a crowd without the hassle of individual sandwiches, plus it stays hot and melty for way longer than you would expect
02 -
  • Overcooking the beef will make it tough and rubbery, so as soon as it loses its pink color, take it off the heat immediately
  • Letting the dip rest for about 5 minutes after baking makes it easier to scoop and helps the flavors settle together
03 -
  • Ask the butcher at the grocery store counter to shave the ribeye thin for you most will do it for free and it saves so much prep time
  • Grate your own cheese from blocks instead of buying pre-shredded bags for a much smoother, creamier texture
