Alpine Cheese Whiz
- 4 oz Comté cheese
- 4 oz Hornbacher cheese

Caramelized Onion Spread
- 2 Vidalia onions
- 1/2 cup White wine
- 1 Bay leaf
- a pinch Fresh thyme
- Kosher salt, to taste
Bread
- 4 Sesame bread rolls
- 1 tbsp Butter
- a pinch Maldon sea salt
Instructions
- 1Wagyu Preparation: Score the whole ribeye, rub with kosher salt, coarsely ground black pepper, and a thin layer of Dijon mustard; let it rest and marinate for 24 hours.
- 2Roast the seasoned ribeye slowly in a low oven (about 250°F) until it reaches medium‑rare (internal temperature 130°F), then cool in the walk‑in refrigerator to retain juices.
- 3After resting, remove the bone, trim the meat, and slice the ribeye paper‑thin (about 6 oz per sandwich). Reserve the crust and rendered fat for the debris.
- 4Debris: Collect the crispy crust and fat bits, chop them finely, then pulse with a little mustard, fresh thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper in a food processor to create a spreadable beef rillette.
- 5Cheese Whiz: Shred the three cheeses; melt them together over low heat, stirring continuously until a smooth, glossy cheese sauce forms.
- 6Caramelized Onion Spread: Slowly cook the sliced Vidalia onions in a splash of white wine with a bay leaf and thyme over medium‑low heat, stirring occasionally, until they become soft, sweet, and lightly caramelized (about 20 minutes). Set aside.
- 7Bread: Bake the sesame rolls in‑house, split them, brush with melted butter and a pinch of Maldon salt, then toast both sides on a plancha until golden (2‑3 minutes per side).
- 8Assembly (per sandwich): Place toasted roll halves on a plate, spread a thin layer of caramelized onion spread, add a spoonful of B&G pepper relish, layer the thin Wagyu slices, drizzle with the Alpine cheese whiz, top with a spoonful of debris, and finish with a drizzle of the onion‑wine reduction.
- 9Serve immediately, cutting each sandwich into thirds for sharing.
