Ingredients
Instructions
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Use a large spatula to transfer the assembled cheesesteak to a plate.
- Repeat for the remaining portions.
Note
Cooking Hack: If you’re short on time, you can slice the steak ahead and store it in the fridge, seasoned and ready to go.
Alternative Cheese: Try provolone or cheddar for a twist.
Serving Suggestion: Pair with fries or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
