Goat Meat Philly-Style Cheese Steak Sandwich

This Philly-inspired sandwich takes the classic cheesesteak to the next level by using tender goat meat and creamy goat cheese. It’s savory, rich, and full of flavor—perfect for those looking to try something new while enjoying a beloved favorite.

Ingredients:

• For the Sandwich:
  • 1 lb goat steak or goat stew meat (thinly sliced or chopped into strips)
  • 1 large onion (sliced)
  • 1 large bell pepper (sliced, optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 fresh hoagie rolls (or sub rolls)
  • 1 cup goat cheese (crumbled or sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (optional for added flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon garlic (minced, optional)
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional for a tangy kick)
• Optional Toppings:
  • Sautéed mushrooms (for added depth)
  • Hot sauce (for some extra heat)
  • Fresh greens (spinach or arugula for a little crunch)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Goat Meat:
   • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet or large pan over medium-high heat.
   • Add the thinly sliced goat steak to the pan, seasoning with salt and pepper.
   • Sauté the meat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s browned and cooked through. If the goat steak is tough, you can add a splash of Worcestershire sauce and let it simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to tenderize.
   • Once the meat is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside.
2. Caramelize the Onions and Peppers:
   • In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the butter over medium heat.
   • Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing them until they are soft and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
   • Season with salt, pepper, and garlic (if using), and add balsamic vinegar for extra sweetness and depth of flavor. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
3. Assemble the Sandwich:
   • Slice your hoagie rolls lengthwise but leave the bottom intact to create a boat for the fillings.
   • Place a generous portion of the cooked goat meat into each roll.
   • Top the meat with a few spoonfuls of the caramelized onions and peppers mixture.
   • Add crumbled or sliced goat cheese over the top of the warm meat and veggies, allowing it to melt slightly. You can also place the sandwich under the broiler for 1-2 minutes if you prefer the cheese to melt more.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Optionally, add any extra toppings like sautéed mushrooms, greens, or hot sauce to personalize your sandwich.
   • Serve hot and enjoy the bold flavors of goat meat paired with creamy goat cheese in this Philly-style twist.

This Goat Meat Philly-Style Goat Cheese Steak Sandwich is a delicious and unique take on the classic cheesesteak. The combination of savory goat meat, caramelized onions and peppers, and creamy goat cheese is sure to become a new favorite. Enjoy!
