Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and slice the smoked prime rib, mushrooms, and onion as needed.

  2. 2

    Sauté the mushrooms and onions

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and onions, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté until they are tender and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the sandwich

    On a slice of marble rye, layer the sautéed mushrooms and onions, followed by the shaved smoked prime rib. Top with a mix of Cheddar and Jack cheese. Place another slice of marble rye on top.

  4. 4

    Grill the sandwich

    In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
