Pot Roast Melts

I love the way the whole house fills will the delicious smells when you're cooking a pot roast. Roast is a comfort food for me, I love eating it in a bowl with potatoes and carrots while it's still steaming hot. Our whole family loves it as much as I do too. The only issue is that our family of three (Marinn's not eating yet so she doesn't count in this one!) can only put a dent in the smaller roasts I can find in the store. We aren't the best at eating leftovers in our house so I've had to get a little creative and make new meals out of them, which is how we came to love these sandwiches. Who wouldn't love their favorite comfort food served on bread, smothered in cheese??



Ingredients:(Serves 4)

8 slices of bread (I used Italian but usually use sourdough)
8 slices provolone cheese (or cheese of your choice)
2 1/2 cups chopped roast beef (cut against the grain)
1 cup sliced onions (about a half of a large onion)
2 tablespoons A1 steak sauce
3 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons butter

Directions:

In a skillet heat one tablespoon over butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until caramelized, about 10 minutes,  stirring frequently to get an even color. Add a splash of water to loosen caramelization in the bottom of the pan. Remove onions and set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the roast, A1, and worcestershire sauce. Stir until well combined and heat until evenly warmed. Your roast should start to break into smaller pieces as it is heated and stirred. Remove from heat.

Heat a griddle on medium heat. Melt one tablespoon of butter onto the griddle (spread with a spatula to the area needed) and place four slices of bread onto the butter. Next layer one slice of cheese, 1/4 of your onion, 1/4 of your meat, and another slice of cheese onto each piece of bread. Top with the second piece of bread. Toast until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Move the sandwiches to the side, melt the last tablespoon of butter onto the griddle, then flip them over and toast the second side. Enjoy!
