Description

A melty, savory sandwich made with seasoned ground beef, cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, grilled between buttery slices of bread for the ultimate comfort food experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 slices sourdough or white bread
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook ground beef, breaking it apart as it browns
  2. Add chopped onion and minced garlic and cook until onion softens
  3. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in Worcestershire sauce and beef broth
  4. Simmer until mixture thickens and liquid is mostly absorbed
  5. Butter one side of each bread slice and preheat skillet over medium heat
  6. Place bread butter side down, layer cheddar, beef mixture, and mozzarella, then top with remaining bread butter side up
  7. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese melts
  8. Slice in half, garnish with parsley, and serve hot

Notes

  1. Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease
  2. Substitute cheeses like Monterey Jack or provolone if desired
  3. Use gluten-free bread or dairy-free cheese if needed
  4. Ground turkey or chicken can replace beef for a lighter option
