Having lived in California for 52 years of my 60+ years, I wonder what makes this cheese steak get that designation?

Lettuce, tomato, and mayo

I did not see the earlier lettuce comment.  Lettuce on a cheese steak, that is totally unacceptable.  That is like putting lettuce on Nacho's!

Lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a cheeseburger is also known as a California cheeseburger, and if you put it on a long roll it is known as a California cheeseburger sub

Lettuce belongs in a salad.   ;D

Picked up a Jersey Mike's giant size Big Kahuna steak sandwich - beef, lots of cheese (American), grilled peppers, onions, mushrooms, and jalapenos.  I have not had this sandwich in over 5 years, and have not had a cheese steak in over a month.

The only hot one I ever get from there is the Reuben. Pretty solid. Don't believe I've tried the cheese steak.

Stopped and grabbed a cheesesteak at Wawa (regional gas station mega convenience store) on my way home from the brewery on Friday night.

Better than Subway, but not something I would eat regularly.

Never had a Subway cheese steak...I think I tried to stay away from beef products at Subway after my one and only meatball sub!

I saw the headline for that story in my news feed earlier today but didn't watch it.  Thanks for sharing.  I thought it was a great story.  Some interesting equipment that he has.

I am not sure of the style of the guys raw meat.  At 1st I though the balls were ground beef, that won't work.  Then it looked some what food processor(ed).  I like to chop up my beef during cooking and blend in the fixins to finish it, so I get what he was doing with the onions.  Can't be pulling cheese out of a dish and putting it on the bread 1st, that is not for me. 

Glad to hear he had hundreds of failures!  Don't feel quit as bad!

A lot of Philly places use a cheese sauce versus melting cheese slices

You mean Whiz?  I know that is an option and is put on with a mustard stick, but that looked like melted Provolone he was putting on!
