Ingredients

Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Tomato Bisque

Seasoned Fries

Preparation

Grilled Cheese Sandwich

1. Prepare the Short Ribs

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Season the short ribs with salt and black pepper. In a large oven-safe pot, sear the short ribs on all sides until browned. Cover and cook in the preheated oven for 3 hours, or until tender. Shred the meat and set aside.

2. Assemble the Grilled Cheese

Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the unbuttered side, layer shredded short ribs, aged cheddar, American cheese, and Fontina cheese. Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up.

3. Grill the Sandwich

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from heat and spread caramelized onion ranch aioli on the inside of one sandwich before serving.

Tomato Bisque

4. Sauté the Aromatics

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

5. Add Tomatoes and Broth

Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes.

6. Blend and Finish the Bisque

Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Stir in heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and fresh basil. Heat for an additional 5 minutes before serving.

Seasoned Fries

7. Prepare the Fries

Cook the frozen French fries according to the package instructions until crispy. Once cooked, remove from the oven and sprinkle with seasoned salt.
