I guess in your shoes I would make it myself.
Buy an eye round and have the deli shave it,
pan fry it with onions and mushrooms,
toast the sub, throw the cheese on the meat and melt it
and assemble.
I guess getting a vanilla egg cream would be out of the
question.
Here's how I do cheesesteaks. My boss is from Philly, and he told me I did it real well, except that I used provolone instead of Cheezewiz. Anyway....
Chop up some onions, sweet peppers, and mushrooms.
Get a frying pan, and drop a little oil on it. Fry up the peppers and onions until they soften a little. Throw on some sandwich steaks. There's a brand I get at Costco, but can't remember the name right now. Steakumm will work in a pinch. Fry everything up together, and toss in some worcestire sauce to taste. Toss in the mushrooms, after the meat has cooked a little.
Depending on whether or not you use Cheezewiz, the next steps will differ. If you use Cheezewiz, just dump the contents of the frying pan into a french bread roll, and then squeeze some Wiz onto it. If you're using provolone, you take a slice of provo and put it on top of the mess you just made in the frying pan to melt it a little. Once the cheese starts getting soft, use a spatula to put all that gooey, greasy goodness into your french bread roll.
Get out your Tasty Cakes, and a wooter ice and you're set for a lovely East Coast dinner.
