WELSH RAREBIT BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Bake the bacon on a broiler pan until crisp, 15 minutes. Preheat the broiler.
• In a bowl, combine the beef, shallot and parsley; season with salt and pepper. Form into 4 patties.
• In a nonstick skillet, heat a drizzle of EVOO over high heat. Add the patties and cook for 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
• In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until light brown, 3 minutes. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, mustard and hot sauce.
• Whisk in the stout and cook until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Lower the heat and stir in the cheese until smooth.
• Arrange the pumpernickel slices on a baking sheet and toast both sides.
• Pour the sauce over the toasts; broil until the cheese is bubbly, about 2 minutes.
• Place a patty on each of 4 slices, cover each with a handful of watercress, crisscross with 2 bacon slices and top with a slice of tomato; season with salt and pepper.
• Cover with the remaining toasts, cheesy side down. Serve with a pile of potato chips.

WELSH RAREBIT BURGERS

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the middle of the oven.
• Place the bread on a sheet pan. Brush the melted butter onto the slices of bread. Place into the oven and toast at 350 degrees for 4-6 minutes. Remove from the oven.
• In a saucepan melt the 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour and let cook for 2 minutes. Add the dry mustard and salt. Whisk to combine.
• Add the stout and Worcestershire to the mixture and continue to whisk until combined. Add the cheese and let melt, stirring occasionally about 2-3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and while whisking constantly, add the egg yolks one at a time. Continue to whisk until all ingredients are incorporated. Spread the sauce onto the toasted bread. Place back into the oven and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbly and browned.
• Remove the Welsh Rarebit from the oven. Slice the bread in half, horizontally. Place one patty on top of the broiled cheese mixture (if adding additional toppings, like caramelized onions, place on top of the cheese mixture first). Add additional cheese sauce to the burger (if desired) and then top with the remaining half of the welsh rarebit. Broil for 1 minute to serve with a crispy top, or skip this step. Serve warm and immediately.
