Welsh Rarebit And Bacon-Roasted Tomatoes On Cheddar Beer Bread Recipe

• 2 pints cherry tomatoes
• 5 strips bacon, chopped
• 3 teaspoons picked fresh thyme leaves, divided
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 cup beer
• 1 medium garlic clove, finely chopped (about 1 teaspoon)
• Pinch red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
• 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese (about 3 cups)
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 4 slices

1. : Adjust the oven rack to middle position and preheat to 425u0b0. In a roasting pan, combine tomatoes, bacon, and 2 teaspoons thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast until bacon has begun to crisp and the skins on the tomatoes have begun to blister and burst, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
2. : Heat beer, garlic, remaining teaspoon thyme, red pepper flakes, and mustard in a medium sauce pan over medium high heat until simmering. Toss cheddar cheese and flour together then add to the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cheese is melted. Remove from heat and add Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Preheat broiler to high. Place bread on a broiler pan and broil until the edges have begun to brown, about 2 minutes then remove from oven. Carefully flip each piece of bread over then coat each piece of bread with the cheese mixture. Place back under the broiler until cheese is bubbly and brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately with roasted tomatoes.
