A favorite sandwich with a classic Irish ingredient.
St. Paddy’s Day is on the way, and I thought it was a good time to try a new recipe with a much-loved Irish ingredient: Guinness stout. This is a beer so dark and thick that it’s practically a meal by itself. Adding a splash of it to any recipe gives it a hint of the beer’s famous, velvety, bittersweet flavor.
I’ve already used Guinness in a dessert recipe, my wonderful Guinness Chocolate Cupcakes with Baileys Cream Cheese Frosting. But I’d never tried it in a savory dish. So for this Irish holiday, I decided to do my own take on Guinness beef sliders.
What are Cheesy Guinness Beef Sliders, you ask? Well, they’re like a really good hot roast-beef sandwich, topped with cheese and sautéed mushrooms and onions. But what really takes them to the next level is the glaze – a blend of Guinness, melted butter, brown sugar, and spices, drizzled all over the tops of the sandwiches.
For my version of the sliders, I decided to use both cheddar and Swiss cheese, along with a touch of Dijon mustard. As the cheese melts, all those flavors blend together with the hearty tastes of the beef, mushrooms, and onions. And the drizzle of Guinness glaze over the top adds the perfect finishing touch that’s sure to get your Irish eyes smiling.
