Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Cocktail rye bread
- 0.5 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Ground pork sausage
- 1 cup Processed cheese (Velveeta), cubed
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and ground pork sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cubed Velveeta cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cheese is completely melted and evenly combined with the meat.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let the mixture cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the flavors are thoroughly combined.
Arrange the cocktail rye bread slices on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the meat and cheese mixture onto each slice of bread, spreading it evenly to cover the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are slightly crispy and the topping is heated through.
Remove the sandwiches from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.
Serve warm and enjoy your Party Rye Sandwiches with friends and family!
