SIX SERVINGS
Prep Time: 15 min Cook Time: 15 min
1 pound ground beef
1 pound sweet Italian pork sausage, casing removed
2 cups cooked spaghetti, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup jarred marinara sauce
4 teaspoons finely chopped garlic (about 3 cloves)
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning blend
6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
12 slices sourdough bread
1. In a large bowl, combine the beef, sausage and spaghetti. Add the cheese, marinara sauce, 2 teaspoons garlic and the Cajun seasoning. Mix well and form into 6 oval-shaped patties.
2. Preheat a stovetop grill over medium heat. In a small bowl, mix the butter and remaining 2 teaspoons garlic. Spread the garlic butter on both sides of each bread slice and grill until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set aside. Grill the patties for 6 to 7 minutes per side. Top 6 bread slices with a patty and set the remaining bread slices into place.
