Philly Cheesesteak

[EB22]

Anyone know a good place to get a Philly Cheesesteak?

 

[VacantlyOccupied]

Delaware Subs is pretty damn good, but I used to work with a guy from Philadelphia, and he swore by Hoody's Subs in Round Rock, across from RRHS.

 

[GhostOfTomJoad]

agree w/ Delaware, esp. on Thursday's when they have a great special: 1/2 a (big) sandwich, chips & drink for $5.

I can vouch for Deleware/Hoody's. They are damn good...about as close to the real deal as your gonna get in this area. No one can say one is really better than the other though since they are basically the same place. It's one of those Dans/Frans sorta deals...family issues split them apart, but are pretty much the same place. If you get a cheesesteak dont forget the sweet peppers!

 

[0RANGEL0NGH0RN]

I agree. Both Delaw and Hoody's have great phillys. I take HOT peppers though.

Ken's Tacos on Cameron/Dessau at Rundberg. Doesn't taste as good as say Texadelphia, but for $4.75 you get a sandwich, bag of chips and a drink. Lemme just say you won't be hungry anytime soon after eating that.

I ate Texadelphia at least once a week in college--good ****.

 

[AkakHorn]

SuperHero, thanks for mentioning Ken's ... I was trying to remember them the other day! Now only do they have great philly subs, they do kickass breakfast taco's, too.

 

[Texas Horn]

for authenticity, Delaware Subs
for the best thing you've ever eaten in your life, Texadelphia w/ mustard blend.

 

[EB22]

Thanks everybody. I had heard that Delaware and Texadelphia were pretty good. I had also heard that Mangia Pizza has one. I will have to try Ken's too casue I do love their breakfast tacos.

My wife's a fan of Texadelphia, but I've yet to have one of their philly's when the meat wasn't cold by the time I took my 2nd bite. Very disappointing.

 

[unpaintedhuffhines]

that's odd

 

[Texas Horn]

Ghost, that is odd. I've never had Texadelphia when I had to wait to pick up the philly it was so hot.

 

[GhostOfTomJoad]

maybe i'm just going to the wrong stores on the wrong nights. we live NW so usually eat at the one on Great Hills or the new one out by Lakeline.

 

[Will Monk]

I like the ones from Delaware the best.

for some reason i find the jester cheesesteak excellent. watch them grill it up. it really is good shockingly. had one tonight in fact.

 

[Texas97]

the texadelphia cheesesteaks with their mustard sauce and cherry peppers are awesome. but the best in town are delaware subs.

Delaware subs. to do it up philly style, bring your own jar of cheez whiz & dress it with ketchup. I know it sounds ******* gross, but that's how they do it at Pat's in South Philly. freakin' beautiful.

 

[agslovesheep]

Never done this personally, but a friend of mine got a couple for his birthday and said they were better than any he has gotten around here.

Delaware already asks you if you want ketchup, the cheesewiz I have never heard about.
Does not sound appealing to me that's for sure.

Delaware first, Texadelphia second in my book.

 

[utxjohne]

There is a great place in Philly I can recommend.

 

[Texas97]

after posting this, i went to delaware subs on sunday night. to my pleasure, sunday is two-for-one philly cheesesteak at delaware subs. it was damn good....

Now if only Texadelphia used Deleware's peppers we would all be in business!

 

[Gardner Barnes]

I think you can buy deleware's peppers in a jor. Just take your jar into texadelphia.

 

[TexasSun]

Bingo! Problem solved! Thank you GB.

However, my buddies own the Texedelphia here in San Antonio. Do you think they'd be offended?

 

[superwick]

there is this philly cheesesteak shop in Highland Mall.. its surprisingly good. forgot the name though..

 

[orangedragon]

texadelphia or chiles

Good article on Philly cheesesteaks

Comprehensive Guide on Where to Find the Best Philly Cheesesteaks

Jake's owner, Robert Ginn, knows that Cheez Whiz is the glue that holds a proper Philly cheese steak together.

i prefer texadelphia. atmosphere, queso and cheesesteaks...

 

[Texas___Fight]

Hoodys or now the Sub Stop has the best I have found. I think if you take it to go it taste better, I guess it lets the flavors mingle...but good stuff. I also recommend the Gyro from there. They are Great!!!
