Steak Sandwiches With Bacon And Blue Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and mustard; spread over four bread slices. Layer with cheeses, tomato, onion and bacon. Top with remaining bread. Butter outsides of sandwiches., On a griddle, toast sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown and cheese is melted, 2-3 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Put the Peppadew peppers and mayonnaise in a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Transfer to a bowl; clean out the food processor. Add the blue cheese, sour cream and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the processor and pulse until combined. (The spreads can be made 1 day ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
• Preheat a grill to medium high and brush with vegetable oil. Sprinkle the steaks with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill until a thermometer inserted into the meat registers 135 degrees F for medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and season with salt; let rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, brush the insides of the rolls with vegetable oil and grill cut-side down until marked, about 1 minute.
• Spread 3 tablespoons of the Peppadew mayonnaise on the bottom half of each roll, then spread 1 tablespoon blue cheese mixture on the top half. Slice the steak against the grain and divide among the rolls.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Spread the rolls out on a pan and toast on both sides.
• Slather the bottom 1/2 of each roll with some of the mustard and top with slices of the steak, overlapping the slices slightly. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cover each portion of meat with 2 slices of cheese. Broil until the cheese is lightly browned and melted, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the open-faced sandwiches to the work surface. Top each sandwich with some of the roasted shallots and watercress. Slather the tops of the rolls with the remaining mustard and cover the sandwiches. Slice in 1/2 and serve.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the shallots with olive oil, 1 tablespoon salt, and pepper, to taste. Spread out on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until the shallots are very tender, about 40 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Slice off the tips of the shallots and discard. Gently squeeze the shallots from their skins and season with additional salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
• Toss together the steak, melted butter and steak seasoning in a bowl. Add to the skillet and cook until nicely seared on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes total. Remove the steak bites to a plate to rest and return the skillet to the heat.
• Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Stir in the rosemary, garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook for 1 minute, until the garlic is heated through and no longer raw. Add the cream and bring it to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, then stir in the blue cheese, horseradish, 1 tablespoon of the chives and black pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl.
• Place the steak bites on a platter with toothpicks, with the sauce on the side. Garnish the plater with the remaining chives before serving.

Steps:

• Mix the Worcestershire, olive oil, hot sauce, and 5 cloves of chopped garlic in a large glass baking dish. Add the steak and swish around, turning until evenly coated. Marinate at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours, flipping the steak once or twice.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and when shimmering add the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally; until the onions are brown, about 8 minutes, then stir in the garlic, salt, thyme, and hot sauce, cook until onions are tender, about 4 minutes more. Add the broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until all the chicken broth is gone, and then season with pepper. Set aside.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan with a medium to medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and season 1 side with salt and pepper. Place seasoned side of the meat down on the grill. Cook the steak undisturbed for 5 minutes. Then rotate the meat about 90 degrees (don¿t turn it over) on the grill to make clear cross marks and grill another 2 minutes. Season the other side of the steak with salt and pepper and flip. Continue to grill until an instant-read thermometer registers 140 degrees F for medium, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mash the blue cheese in a bowl with the mayonnaise or sour cream, lemon zest, and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• Cut the rolls in half horizontally and brush the insides with olive oil. Grill until warm on each side, about 1 minute. Rub the toasted bread with the remaining clove of garlic.
• Thinly slice the meat across the grain and assemble the sandwiches. Spread a few tablespoons of the blue cheese sauce on each sandwich, top with some of the steak, onions, roasted tomatoes and watercress. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the tomatoes in a large bowl with the olive oil, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet cut side up and roast until soft and juicy, about 20 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Place meat on broiler pan. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 5-8 minutes on each side or until meat is browned and cooked to desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°)., Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the blue cheese and butter; set aside. In a skillet, saute bread cubes in oil until golden brown. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Top steaks with blue cheese mixture and sprinkle with croutons; broil 1 minute longer or until cheese is slightly melted.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Spread each of 4 bread slices with 2 tablespoons onion jam. Top each with a quarter of the cheese, 1 1/2 slices bacon, and 1 slice bread.
• Melt 1 to 2 tablespoons butter on a griddle or in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches in batches, and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 6 minutes total, flipping once and adding more butter as needed. Transfer to a baking sheet, and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Cut in halves or quarters, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Fire up your frying pan to high heat, or get the grill ready.
