Philly Cheese Steaks in Salt Lake
Before you wonder, "yes" this does belong in tech talk. Because there are lots of ways to make a philly cheese steak, but only a few ways to do it properly. But bottom line anyone know some good philly cheese steak shops in Salt Lake. I ran across some info on "Moochies", but that is about it. And after the serious let down I had at Lumpys while ordering a Philly Cheese Steak, I am dire need of a good one. I did find a recipe online from "Pats" and if all else fails, I will "freehand" one myself

If you're not using Whiz, it ain't a Philly steak.
And I'm a Pat's guy, for the record.

I'll trade you proximity to Pats/Ginos for proximity to sick skiing any day of the week. A vote in favor of Pats over Ginos. Unfortunately I have no beta on SLC cheesesteaks, but I would imagine access to quality bread is as much if not more of a problem than finding someone that knows how to prepare it for you.

As I sit here in downtown Philly, I gotta say, Pat's and Gino's flat out suck.Neither of those goomba's knows how to make a steak
Quality steak sandwiches are found at Jim's at 4th and South or for the very best, Dalesandro's on Henry Ave.
For the record, Jim's has shipped pretty much everywhere in the lower 48
Oh and for me, it's a provolone cheese steak w/sweet peppers thank you.

I have lived now in Utah for 9 years and have yet to come across a "philly cheesesteak". I don't even try now.

FKNA I haven't had a REAL cheese steak in years. Jim's is the old fav, and yes the Whiz is the best.
I can't see shipping a steak - it has to be fresh; even takeout sucks compared to wolfing down a large Jim's cheese steak with sauce and washing it down with a couple of beers. I have chowed a Jim's numerous times standing on the curb outside when there were no seats inside.
Damn, I could sure use one now - not to mention a walk on South Street.

Should there be a thread in Summits about a South Street Cheessteak Mini summit?

Alright, THE PHILADELPHIAN at 9860 South 700 East in Sandy. That place is awsome! Greasy goodness. The place looks like a major dive when you walk through the door; but, the food really is delicious. If you want fries with it, they have wedgie, chunkie, toty frie thingys that are fantastic. Like I said, major dive; but, people who know the place will attest to its goodness. Give it a shot and report back.

Mucci's is the only one I know of within the city itself.
But word on the street is that Park City now has a killer steak'n'cheese place in the plaza with Albie's and the movie theater. Its called Atlantic something. If you try and don't like it, blame Long Duck Dong.

The skiing will come. Am not flying out of Philly for my annual pilgramage this year, so unfortunately I probably can't hook you up with the hand delivery. Can't imagine they'd be that good shipped. I think the roll does make a difference (based on my experience regionally in the mid-Atlantic), but maybe those mormons have that angle figured out.
Lived in Philly for 5 years and never got to Dalesandros, though I'm sure it was my loss. Will have to add that to the list. I know people are passionate about their choices, but I find it hard to believe anyone can objectively say that Pat's steaks suck. The lines suck at times, but the steaks are pretty damned good in my mind.

I freakin love Moochie's.
But I'm not from Philly, which is probably why I'm so affable.

I can already attest to the Philadelphian's goodness. I grew up and worked in Sandy until the late '90s. However what I used to get at the Philadelphian had lots of different kinds of meats and cheeses and was really good. At that time I had never been to Philly and tried a real cheesesteak. So with thinking of a cheesesteak, that place hadnt crossed my mind. I might have to make a drive. Also sounds like I might have to drive to PC. I hate driving when I am hungry

I bet you can find a decent cheesesteak in Ohio. May not be authentic, but might be closer than what I have found here. And for the record it does not even resemble a cheesesteak sandwich that you would find at Subway or something like that. BTW typing while drooling is hard work

I'm here to say that the Philly Cheesesteak cart on 16th in Denver blows the fucking doors off any "Philly Cheesesteak" in Philly.
