List of Ingredients
Beer Cheese Sauce:
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups light beer, such as lager
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 clove garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 ounces grated sharp Cheddar
6 ounces grated Swiss cheese
Recipe
For the beer cheese sauce: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until the roux starts to brown, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the beer until smooth.
Reduce the heat and cook until the beer begins to reduce and the alcohol is cooked out, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the cream and garlic and continue to cook, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper; gradually whisk in the cheeses until melted completely. Keep warm. Note: This recipe makes about 4 cups of cheese sauce, more than needed for the burgers. Refrigerate the extra for up to 3 days.
