DIRECTIONS

1.	Heat the beef steak according to package directions. Cover the meat and hold it in warmer for assembly. CCP: Heat to 135 degrees F or higher for at least 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process. If manufacturer instructions on the package or case have a higher temperature, follow those recommendations. CCP: Hold in warmer at 135 degrees F or warmer until ready for assembly.
2.	Spray a pot, braising pan or steam-jacketed kettle with pan release spray. Sauté the peppers and onions, stirring them frequently for 5 minutes or until they are tender. CCP: Heat to 135 degrees F or higher for 15 seconds at the completion of the cooking process.
3.	SANDWICH ASSEMBLY: Place 24 bottom parts of hoagie buns on a sheet pan, 4 down and 6 across. Slice the cheese on the diagonal and overlap the triangles of cheese. Weigh a 2-ounce portion of sliced beefsteak to determine portion size. Place 2-ounce portion of sliced beef steak and ½ ounce slice of cheese on each bun. Top with #16 scoop of sautéed onions and peppers. Replace the top part of the bun. Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches may be wrapped in deli paper, waxed paper, foil sheets, or plastic wrap. Place each sandwich in steamtable pans (12" x 20" x 2½") lined with pan liners. Prepare in batches to maintain quality. Serve immediately, or cover the pan with lid, foil, or plastic wrap until ready for service. If foil or plastic wrap is used, cut holes in it to allow steam to escape. Place the pan in the warmer until ready for service. CCP: Hold and maintain the product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F. Check temperature every 30 minutes.
4.	Portion 1 sandwich per serving. Each portion provides 2 oz. eq. meat/meat alternate, 2 oz. eq. whole grains, and ¼ cup other vegetable. CCP: Hold and maintain the product at a minimum temperature of 135 degrees F or higher. Check temperature every 30 minutes. Unassembled leftovers should be covered, labeled, and dated. Quick chill within 2 hours to 70 degrees F or lower and from 70 to 41 degrees F or lower within an additional 4 hours. Leftover assembled sandwiches do not have good quality when reheated. For best quality, assembled sandwiches should be discarded.
