Sometimes my family likes their pizza crust extra crispy so I prebake the crust for 5 minutes before adding the toppings. There are never leftovers.—Laura McDowell, Lake Villa, Illinois

Very hearty pizza. Didn't have any leftover beef, so I grilled a ribeye to use. Will also cook the crust for 5 minutes before topping next time.

Not sure why people say this has alot of prepwork...it doesn't. You can't expect to just throw a few things together and call it "cooking". This pizza is amazing! Had it the other day and I'm making it again tonight. I followed the recipe exactly except ommited the onions.

Great weekenight dinner. I followed the recipes except omitted the pickled pepper rings. I used leftover flank steak. The crust definitely needs to be prebaked.

Edible but not delicious. It's OK. Lots of prep. work. Prefer traditional pizza, I guess. Flavor combination was strange. Philly cheese steak should be left alone, as a sandwich, not made into other recipes (my opinion). Good try but does not pop with the expected flavor.

Taste just like a Philly Cheesesteak! All the peppers were fabulous! I will make this on again!

I made the recipe today. It has kept my interest for a long time. I think I needed more onions. I only did half of a small onion. That was on me. A little in way of prep work but all in all a good pizza. Thanks for the recipe!
