This juicy sandwich is made in the surf-and-turf style, combining meat and seafood in one dish. The classic Philly cheesesteak with beef is enhanced with real crab meat, and seafood seasoning enhances the flavor. For this recipe, the beef should be very thinly sliced. And for easier slicing, the piece should be slightly frozen.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

In a medium bowl, gently combine crab meat with seafood seasoning and refrigerate.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add the onion, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and cook until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.

Increase the heat to high, add the ground beef, and cook, adding more butter as needed and breaking up the ground beef with a spatula. Add the remaining soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce, season with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until the beef is no longer pink, about 2 minutes.
Add the cherry peppers, push the beef and onions to the sides of the pan, and top with cheese slices. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the empty part of the pan, add the crab meat, and cook for about 2 minutes.
Spread both sides of the buns with "Have Mercy" sauce. Top the bottom half with the beef and onion mixture and crab meat. Top with the top bun.
