Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound thinly sliced cooked prime rib cold or room temperature
  • 4 high-quality sandwich rolls or crusty bread slices like ciabatta, sourdough, or baguette
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup red onion thinly sliced (optional, for a sharper bite)
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese or provolone cheese crumbled (optional, for added richness)
  • fresh parsley chopped (for garnish, optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with the minced garlic. Mix until well incorporated.
    4 tablespoons unsalted butter, 2 cloves garlic
  2. Slice your sandwich rolls in half horizontally. Generously spread the garlic butter mixture onto the cut sides of each roll. Toast these in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant, or place them under a broiler for a minute or two, watching carefully to prevent burning. Set aside once toasted.

  3. In another small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, and Dijon mustard. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. Taste and adjust the horseradish for your desired level of kick.

  4. Gently warming the prime rib slices can significantly enhance their texture and flavor. You can do this by briefly sautéing them in a skillet with a touch of your preferred cooking fat (like butter or olive oil) for 1-2 minutes per side, or by placing them on a baking sheet and warming them in a low oven (around 250°F / 120°C) for 5-10 minutes. Avoid overcooking, as you want them to remain tender.

  5. Spread a generous layer of the horseradish mayo onto the bottom halves of your toasted rolls.

  6. Arrange the thinly sliced prime rib evenly over the horseradish mayo. Pile it high for the ultimate prime rib sandwich experience!

  7. If using, scatter the thinly sliced red onion for a bit of sharpness, and then crumble the blue cheese or provolone cheese over the prime rib.
    1/4 cup red onion, 1/2 cup blue cheese or provolone cheese
  8. Spread a bit more horseradish mayo on the top halves of the rolls. Place the top halves onto the assembled sandwiches. If desired, garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy the incredible flavors!
