Cooper® Corned Beef and Cabbage Grilled Cheese with Beer Mustard


INGREDIENTS
For the sandwiches:4 slices marble rye bread
12 slices Cooper® Sharp White cheese
1 cup (or 10 slices) corned beef, cooked*
1/2 cup cabbage, cooked and chopped
1/2 stick unsalted butter
salt and pepper to taste
For the beer mustard:
1 cup brown mustard
1 tablespoon dark, stout or amber beer
DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, mix the mustard and beer. Set aside.
In a microwaveable dish, melt the butter for 30 seconds. Set aside.
Place each slice of the marble rye on a flat surface. Spread each slice with some of the beer mustard. On the bottom bread of each sandwich, portion 2 slices of Cooper® Sharp cheese. Add a layer of corned beef. Top the corned beef with a second layer of 2 slices of Cooper® Sharp cheese, followed by another layer of corned beef. Top with equal portions of cooked cabbage and a few more Cooper® cheese slices. Press the top with remaining bread slices, beer mustard side down. Using a brush, coat the outside top of the sandwiches with melted butter.
Place a medium skillet over medium heat or set your griddle to 350°F.
Place butter side of sandwich on hot surface and grill for 3-4 minutes. While the first side of sandwich is grilling, brush the other outside slice of bread, now on top, with butter.
Flip and continue to grill for another 3-4 minutes until bread is toasted and cheese is melted. Remove from heat.
Use any remaining beer mustard as a dipping sauce for the sandwiches or with a side of fries.
