• Add pickled jalapeños for a spicy seasonal winter twist.

Quick Questions

Can I use different cheese?

Yes, white American or Swiss cheese works beautifully here. Just ensure it is a good melting cheese.

How do I slice the steak thin?

Freeze the ribeye for 30 minutes before you slice it. This makes it much easier to get thin pieces.
