i hope this is AI and no real steak or cheesecake got harmed with this crime
Don’t worry, it is.
You dissapoint me. I love this, would try it
I know what instance this is but it still shouldn’t be okay for you to post this.
I’d eat that
I wouldn’t ever order it off of a menu, but if it was served at a party, I would absolutely try a small slice.
It looks too well made, and very tasty
Makes me wonder if this could be made in an actually good way. A savory not sweet cheese wiz cheesecake recipe or something?
Looks delicious 😋
Is there a community of food memes like these? I freaking love em and I want moar
Food Crimes, maybe?
They do make a mean clam chowder
You are evil lol
That… could work?
I mean, it’d be a real challenge. But some sort of savory cheesecake, with a savory crust, topped with cheese steak fillings and I could see it being… okay-ish. I don’t think it would gain mainstream appeal, but I could see it being some sort of local delicacy that all the locals say is delicious but also a acquired taste.
I’ve had a salmon cheesecake. Might have more appeal to those who like cream cheese and lox on a bagel.
I’m thinking way to hard of a way to make this work… Some type of rye for the crust? Drizzled with A-1 or Heinz 57?
Why is my brain trying to make this abomination feasible!?
My thought is some sort of rosemary heavy crust with whole wheat bread crumbs instead of graham crackers, a garlic and onion flavored (and sugar free) cheese cake and then standard Philly cheese steak filling for the topping. Add in a dollop of cheese wiz on the top and some sort of balsamic/worcestershire reduction drizzled onto the top.
I love this, but it needs a new name.
Philly cheese steak + New York cheesecake = something named for New Jersey.
The jersey beefcake
The Jersey Shore
something named for New Jersey.
The Situation.
He’s not a New Jerseyan. He’s from Staten Island. They’re all fucking bennies.
Signed - New Jerseyans who hate our state being associated with those people.
The Newark Surprise
We could call it the Trenton Makes. Or name it after the Raritan. Or call it the Chris Christie Calorie Bomb Special. Or we could call it The Great Adventure. Or call it something like The 6 and 7 (growing up in Trenton, you get both NYC and Philly channels on TV - for example, Philly 6ABC was on 6 and NYC’s ABC was on 7).
I stink at naming things.
what’s not to like. Philly cheesteak good. cheese cake good.
let’s get our eating pants on and Rachel up this Joey.
It looks so wrong, but probably tastes so right. Sweet and savory.
OP sharing pics from his wedding day, what else was on the menu?
Well, for the vegetarians we had Mac’n Cheesecake…
Username checks out
I’ve always thought a blue cheese cheesecake could be tasty
The real crime here is the crust.
The real crime is the peppers - you’d get assaulted if you ordered those here in Philly.
To be fair, a lot of things can get you assaulted in Philly.
It’s funny how many times I’ve had guys threaten to rip my fucken eyeballs out, specifically. That must be why we have a famous eye institute here.
What? Pat’s has a guy grilling peppers right on the patio.
Pat’s
Lol you get assaulted just for going to Pat’s.
I try very hard every day to avoid making a savory salmon and dill cheesecake. When my resolve fails, I like to top it with some capers or pickled red onions.
I also failed.
I’m ashamed to say that I really want this.
So, will native Philidephians be more upset that someone put cheese steak on a cheesecake, or that you called it a ‘Philly’ when it is adulterated with peppers and missing one of the two
acceptable[traditional] cheeses (American[Provolone] or whizz)? Place your bets and hopefully a real Philadelphian can let us know which is more upsetting. I’m betting on the latter, but not heavily.Philadelphian here. Sharp provolone is preferred. Nevertheless, I’d try it. Although cream cheese separates when you heat it so this would have to be eaten cold. It’s probably not bad, but I’m not sure about the chocolate on bottom.
I wonder if mixing a little American cheese into the cake could prevent it from separating long enough to serve and eat a slice
Just add some Sodium Citrate to keep it from separating.
I’m not native, but have lived in Philly. The bell peppers bother me. Wiz, American, provolone, or Swiss all are pretty common in my experience. As is no cheese at all, which this appears to be. But then it’s not a cheesesteak, it’s a steak.
I’m not from Philadelphia, but I though the two acceptable cheeses were cheese whiz and provolone.
Yeah, I think I misremebered that one. It’s been some years since I heard my coworker at the time rant about how cheesesteaks made other ways might taste good, but they’re not Philly cheesesteaks anymore and please stop calling them that.
Congrats, you just reinvented meat pie.
