It might have been a curse for my farmer because at first bite, prime rib became my new favorite food. It’s pretty much all I wanted to eat for a few years!
It was a blessing to my farmer because I am one of those people who eats out and tries to figure out how to duplicate the food the whole time I’m eating it. And I must admit, I probably won’t pay to eat prime rib at a restaurant ever again! I’m learning to make a mean prime rib!
If you are making prime rib for Christmas I would suggest ordering a little bigger roast than you think you will need. You are going to want a little extra so you can make this mouth watering Prime Rib Grilled Cheese Sandwich! If fact, I think I might have this sandwich for breakfast the morning after Christmas!
Prime Rib Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients
- 4 slices bread sourdough would be delicious
- 2 T. horseradish sauce optional
- 4 T. butter softened
- thinly sliced prime rib as much as you want
- 1/2 green pepper sliced
- 1/4 onion sliced
- 2 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 slices cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Saute onions and peppers in a tablespoon of butter until they are tender. Set aside.
- Spread outsides of two pieces of bread to make a sandwich.
- Place a slice of cheese on unbuttered side of the bread. Then layer with half of the sliced prime rib. Top with half of the peppers and onion. Add a slice of cheddar cheese to the top. Spread the unbuttered side of one slice of bread with horseradish sauce if you want. Put other buttered piece of bread on top to make sandwich, buttered side outside.
- Repeat with other two slices of bread to make another sandwich.
- Grill sandwich over medium heat until golden brown and cheese is melted.

We always have leftover beef and I’m totally in love with grilled cheese. So this sandwich is a winner at our house!
