Ingredients

1 loaf French bread sliced
¼ cup butter salted
½ tsp garlic powder
1 green bell pepper sliced
1 small white onion sliced
1 Tbsp butter salted
500 g sliced roast beef
250 g provolone cheese sliced

Instructions

In a small skillet, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add pepper and onion and saute until softened, about 5 minutes.
Mix together the 1/4 cup butter and garlic powder to create garlic butter.
Next, cut slices into the loaf of bread, about 1/2" apart and not all the way through to the bottom, using a sharp knife. Butter the inside of every second slice.
Now drop a large spoonful of the veggie mixture into every second slice.
Then stuff the opening with several slices of roast beef.
Layer that with a slice of provolone cheese.
Wrap the entire loaf in aluminum foil. You may need to use two layers to reach all the way around the sandwich.
Place the package near the hot coals of a fire (but not IN the fire) or on the grate above the fire. Cook until cheese melts and loaf is heated through, about 20 minutes.
To serve, simply slice all the way through the bread to cut it into individual Philly cheesesteak sandwiches.

Notes

Pack along a sharp knife to make slicing the loaf clean and easy.

Prep the veggie mix at home and store it in the cooler to save time at the campsite.

Spray the inside of the aluminum foil with non-stick cooking spray to keep cheese from sticking.

Use white American cheese or Cheez Whiz if you want to switch up the flavor profile.

Wrap the sandwich tightly for best results—this keeps all that gooeyness contained.
