8 slices bread (thick-sliced sandwich bread or Texas toast)

# Instructions:
01 -
Heat butter and oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add sliced onions and sauté until softened and golden, about 6-8 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, season with salt, pepper, and optional Worcestershire sauce. Continue cooking until mushrooms are tender and most liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and set aside.
02 -
Season ground beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Shape into four oval, flat patties sized to fit the bread. Cook patties in a skillet over medium-high heat, browning each side until fully cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
03 -
Butter one side of each slice of bread evenly. Place half the bread slices, buttered side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Layer with Swiss cheese, a cooked beef patty, sautéed mushrooms and onions, another slice of Swiss cheese, then top with a second buttered bread slice (buttered side up).
04 -
Cook assembled sandwiches over medium heat until bread is crisp and golden, about 3–4 minutes. Gently flip and cook the other side until browned and cheese is thoroughly melted.

Remove from skillet, slice in half, and serve promptly while hot.

For best results, use thick, sturdy bread to withstand the hearty fillings and ensure a crisp exterior.
