Why You’ll Love This Cheesesteak Stuffed Garlic Bread Loaf

This dish brings together everything you love about a cheesesteak and a garlic bread in one irresistible bite. It’s hearty, cheesy, and just the right amount of messy. The flavor is savory and comforting with a subtle kick from the garlic butter. Plus, it feeds a crowd and reheats like a dream. Whether served as a main or a shareable snack, it never disappoints.

What Kind of Bread Should I Use for Stuffed Garlic Loaf?

A crusty French baguette or Italian loaf is perfect for this recipe. You want something with a crisp outer crust and a soft, pillowy center to hold all the cheesy, meaty goodness. Avoid overly soft sandwich loaves—they won’t hold their shape or give you that satisfying crunch.

Ingredients for the Cheesesteak Stuffed Garlic Bread Loaf

A few simple ingredients are all it takes to build this flavor-packed loaf. You can customize it with your favorite cheese or add mushrooms, but this version keeps it classic and satisfying.

  • French bread loaf: This acts as the edible vessel. Its crusty exterior holds everything in place while baking.
  • Ribeye steak (thinly sliced): The classic cut for cheesesteaks, ribeye is rich, juicy, and tender when cooked quickly.
  • Provolone cheese: Adds melty, creamy texture and mild tang that complements the beef.
  • Green bell pepper: For a fresh, slightly sweet crunch.
  • Yellow onion: Brings in that essential caramelized sweetness.
  • Garlic cloves: Used in the garlic butter spread to amp up flavor.
  • Unsalted butter: Mixed with garlic to create a rich, flavorful spread for the bread.
  • Salt & black pepper: Season the filling to perfection.
  • Olive oil: For sautéing the vegetables and beef.

How To Make the Cheesesteak Stuffed Garlic Bread Loaf

Step 1: Prepare the Garlic Butter

Melt the butter in a small saucepan, then add minced garlic and cook just until fragrant. Set aside.

Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables

Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sauté until soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from skillet.

Step 3: Cook the Steak

In the same skillet, quickly cook the thinly sliced ribeye, seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir until just browned and cooked through. Return the peppers and onions to the skillet and combine.

Step 4: Hollow and Toast the Bread

Preheat oven to 375°F. Slice the French loaf lengthwise and scoop out some of the bread to make room for the filling. Brush the inside with the garlic butter and toast in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 5: Fill and Bake

Layer half the cheese in the bottom of the loaf, followed by the steak mixture, then the rest of the cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10–12 minutes.

Step 6: Slice and Serve

Let the loaf cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy every bite of gooey, garlicky goodness.

How to Serve and Store Cheesesteak Stuffed Garlic Bread Loaf

This loaf is best served hot, right out of the oven when the cheese is at its meltiest. Slice it into thick portions for an easy lunch, a hearty appetizer, or a full-on dinner. It feeds 4 to 6 people, depending on how hungry they are!

To store leftovers, wrap the loaf tightly in foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to bring back that crisp crust and gooey center.
