Corned Beef Grilled Cheese

There is no more perfect grilled cheese for St. Patrick’s Day than Corned Beef Grilled Cheese. A stack of salty corned beef, topped with sweet caramelized onions, and gooey melted cheese- Yum! This is perhaps the best way to eat corned beef. Can you disagree?

Type Of Bread To Use

I didn’t even mention the crispy pumpernickel bread.

What is it about pumpernickel bread that makes such a great hot sandwich? Note: Instead of pumpernickel bread, you can use marble rye or rye bread.

The onions are cooked in beer and flavored with a little Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and a few caraway seeds.

Type Of Corned Beef To Use

You can use either leftover corned beef that you’ve cooked yourself, or a deli-sliced corned beef. You’ll need about 1/2 a pound to make 4 sandwiches.

It reminds me a little of my all time favorite sandwich – the Reuben.

If you really wanted to go with the Irish theme, you could always add some sautéed cabbage to this Corned Beef Grilled Cheese.

Make Ahead

The onion/corned beef mixture can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Refrigerate in an airtight container until needed and then warm in the microwave before forming the sandwiches.

  • 2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon caraway seeds, optional
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 cup dark beer, I used Samuel Adams Black Lager
  • 8 ounces deli-sliced corn beef, cut into strips
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
  • 2 cups shredded Jarlsberg or Fontina cheese
  • 8 slices marble rye bread or pumpernickel bread

Instructions

  • Add beer and continue cooking until liquid turns slightly syrupy, about 8 to 10 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Mix in the corned beef slices.
  • On 4 slices of bread, layer the cheese, and corned beef and onion mixture. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread.
  • On a griddle or large pan, melt some butter and grill the sandwiches until lightly browned and crispy on both sides and cheese is melted.
