Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak:
    • Freeze the bavette steak for 30 minutes to ease slicing.
    • Slice thinly against the grain for tenderness.
    • Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  2. Fire Up the Ninja Woodfire Grill:
    • Insert the Grill Flat Plate (or equivalent accessory).
    • Preheat using the “Grill” function on high for 20 minutes with the lid closed.
  3. Toast the Rolls:
    • Spread a thin layer of butter on the sliced rolls.
    • Place them on the flat plate to toast until golden. Set aside.
  4. Cook the Onions and Peppers:
    • Add 1 tbsp of vegetable oil to the grill plate.
    • Sauté the onions for 5-7 minutes until soft with a charred edge.
    • Add the peppers and cook for another 5-7 minutes. Optionally, splash some Worcestershire sauce for an extra hit of flavour.
    • Move to the side of the plate to make space for the steak.
  5. Cook the Steak:
    • Cook portions of the sliced steak (enough for one sandwich at a time) on the flat plate for 2-3 minutes per side.
    • Mix in 2 slices of processed cheese while grilling and allow it to melt into the steak.
  6. Assemble the Cheesesteak:
    • Layer cooked steak onto the toasted roll base.
    • Top with onions, peppers, and 3 slices of Gouda.
    • Close the roll and place it back on the grill. Close the lid briefly to allow the cheese to melt and flavours to meld.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Use a large spatula to transfer the assembled cheesesteak to a plate.
    • Repeat for the remaining portions.

🔥 And THAT’S why a vacuum sealer machine is your BEST mate when you BBQ.

Today’s lunch was the stuff of legend—smoked pulled pork nachos made in just 35 minutes. Yep, you heard that right.

Here’s the trick:

💡 Pulled pork straight from the freezer (still vacuum-sealed) into a saucepan of simmering water. 25 minutes later—perfection.

💥 Hit it with an extra sprinkle of BBQ rub.

💪 Layered up with nachos, BBQ sauce, salsa, and cheese.

🔥 10 mins in the oven for melty goodness.

🌶️ Finished with sriracha drizzle, spring onion, and sour cream dollops.

The kids smashed it in seconds, and honestly, so did I.

Vacuum sealing = game changer. Keeps the flavour, keeps the moisture, keeps you winning.

👉 Wanna know more about reheating vacuum-packed BBQ leftovers like a pro? I’ve got you covered. Check out the full guide here: https://www.smokeandsear.world/foundations-tips/how-to-reheat-vacuum-packed-bbq-food-a-complete-guide/

🎤 So here’s the thing… I was gonna go all healthy with Cornflakes for this chicken sandwich. You know, like everyone else does. But then my local shop let me down. No Cornflakes, just Frosties.

And you know what? I binned the “healthy vibes” right then and there. Frosties it was. Sweet, crunchy, and a little rebellious – just how I like it.

I chucked everything at this sandwich: sweet, spicy, crunchy, glazed goodness… and honestly, maaaaaate, it turned out way better than I could’ve imagined. This thing is an absolute flavour bomb. 💣
