Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and prepare the beef birria, grilled jalapeños, and sliced onions.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread crema on one side of each slice of Texas toast. On the uncreamed side, layer beef birria, grilled jalapeños, onions, and both cheeses.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter. Once melted, place the sandwich in the skillet, buttered side down. Cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, then flip and grill the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm with extra crema if desired.
