Prepare the sauce: In a saucepan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it darkens slightly. Pour in the beer and brandy (if using), and bring to a simmer. Stir in the piri piri sauce. Let the sauce simmer gently for about 15-20 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened to a rich, gravy-like consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
โฑ๏ธ 25 minutes - 2
Cook the meats: Season the thin beef steaks with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 1-2 minutes per side until browned but still slightly pink inside. Remove from skillet and set aside. Slice the linguiรงa or chouriรงo sausages into thick rounds and grill or pan-fry them until lightly browned and cooked through. Set aside.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 3
Assemble the sandwich: Lightly toast the bread slices if desired. On a baking sheet or oven-safe dish, place one slice of bread. Layer with two slices of ham, then half of the cooked linguiรงa/chouriรงo, followed by one seared steak. Top with another two slices of ham. Place the second slice of bread on top to complete the first sandwich. Repeat for the second sandwich. If your bread is very soft, you can lightly grill or toast the edges of the assembled sandwiches before adding cheese to help them hold their shape.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 4
Add cheese and bake: Generously cover the top of each assembled sandwich with the sliced cheese, ensuring it drapes down the sides. Place the baking sheet under a preheated broiler (grill) or in a hot oven at 200ยฐC (400ยฐF) for about 5-8 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted, bubbly, and lightly golden. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
โฑ๏ธ 8 minutes - 5
Serve: Carefully transfer the hot, cheesy sandwiches to serving plates. Pour a generous amount of the warm beer sauce over each sandwich, allowing it to cascade down the sides. If desired, top each sandwich with a freshly fried egg. Serve immediately with a side of hot French fries.

- Some variations include adding a layer of bacon or different types of smoked sausage.
- In coastal regions, you might find seafood versions, though less traditional.
- A vegetarian version can be made using hearty mushrooms and plant-based meats, though it significantly alters the classic flavor profile.
