Want a free Philly cheesesteak? Well, of course, if you are searching for a legit rendition, you have to travel to the city for it!
Tomorrow at The Mayor’s Market at City Hall, Frog Commissary founder and Chef Steve Poses will be slinging 1,000 FREE cheesesteaks concocted from ingredients found only in a one hundred-mile radius. What does it take to make 1,000 locally sourced cheesesteak samples? Ingredients include:
• 150 pounds of chipped grass-fed organic beef from Landisdale Farm
• 50 pounds of organic colby cheese from Mountain Meadows Colby
• 25 pounds of organic onions from Landisdale Farm
• 25 pounds of sweet and hot peppers from McCann Farm
• 208 feet of bread from Sarcone’s Bakery
This tasting event is part of GPTMC’s Philly Homegrown™, a consumer education and tourism marketing program launched this summer to introduce the people, places and flavors of the area’s foodshed—from Amish Country to the Atlantic Ocean and from the region’s rivers to the rich farmlands in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland.
Grab dibs on a beefy sandwich beginning at 11 a.m. and lasting until 1 p.m., that is if the city-appropriate sandwiches last that long!
