Method

5 steps 10 min prep · 20 min cook

Cook

  1. Step 1. Toast the Hoagie Rolls cut-side down on a large griddle or in a large skillet over medium heat, in batches, until golden, about 3 minutes. Set aside.

  2. Step 2. Heat the Vegetable Oil on the griddle or in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Onion and cook, stirring, until softened and beginning to brown, about 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3. Add the Ground Beef, Salt, and Black Pepper. Press the beef against the hot surface, then chop it together with the onion using a sturdy spatula; cook until browned with no pink remaining, about 8 minutes.

  4. Step 4. Divide the beef mixture into portions on the griddle and lay the American Cheese over each. Reduce the heat to low and cook until melted, about 2 minutes.

Finish & serve

  1. Step 5. Spread the Mayonnaise and Ketchup inside the toasted rolls. Add the cheesy beef, then top with Lettuce and Tomato. Close the sandwiches and serve.

Tips

Good to know

Ground beef is safe when its center reaches 160°F on an instant-read thermometer.

Swap it

Use dairy-free American-style slices and egg-free mayonnaise if needed.
