  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 14 tablespoons soy sauce

  • Julienned green leaf lettuce and Napa Cabbage, for serving
  • Sliced Tomatoes, for serving

Directions

For the beef. Combine the onion, garlic, sugar, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil in a food processor. Pour marinade over beef in a bowl, toss to coat. Cover
and refrigerate 24 hours.

For the spicy mayonnaise: Combine the mayonnaise, Siracha and Shichimi Togarashi powder in a bowl.

Heat a grill. Remove beef from marinade and grill to desired doneness. The ribeye will cook fast and will be tender. Grill the onions next to the meat to desired tenderness.

After the onion is cooked, grill the Cheddar jack and Monterey cheese on top of the onions.

The grill cheese puts the most meat and onions together nicely to put on the bun (like a patty).
Garnish with the grilled pineapple, lettuce, cabbage and sliced tomatoes.
