Corned Beef Grilled Cheese

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • - ground black pepper
  • 3/4 cup dark beer (preferably porter)
  • 2 oz. deli-sliced corned beef, cut into strips
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
  • 1 1/2 cups grated Jarlsberg cheese (6 oz.)
  • 4 slices marble rye bread

Directions

  1. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with the sugar, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 10 minutes.
  2. Add the beer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender and the liquid is slightly syrupy, about 8 more minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat and stir in the corned beef, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard.
  4. Divide half of the cheese between 2 bread slices; top with the corned beef mixture and the remaining cheese. Close the sandwiches with the remaining 2 bread slices.
  5. Melt the remaining butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until the bread is toasted and the cheese melts, about 4 minutes per side, adding more butter to the pan if needed.
