This steak sandwich recipe is as good as the takeout sub shops of Southeastern Massachusetts! I think this is about as close as you can get at home. Freezing the steak the day before makes it easy to cut into very thin slices.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until just tender, about 2 minutes. Push onion to sides of the pan; add mushrooms and cook until softened. Stir in bell pepper and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove vegetables from the pan with a slotted spoon; set aside.
Step 2
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the same skillet. Add steak and pickled hot peppers; season with hot pepper sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until steak is mostly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vegetable mixture back into the pan; stir until heated through.
Step 3
Turn off the heat; place cheese on top of steak and vegetable mixture so they can melt. Scoop mixture into sliced baguette; pour some of the juices on top.
