I used this recipe as a guide and made modifications, but still rated it 5 stars because I can't stand it when people modify a recipe then goof up the ratings. That said, if modifications annoy you, please stop reading. I cooked a scant half pound of bacon, set it aside and saved & measured the bacon grease then used equal amounts of flour (3 Tbs. each. I used a whole bottle of Heffeweissen (didn't have Porter, added a hefty splash of whole milk and used cheddar only. It made a lot and it was fabulous. Bacon grease makes everything better...

Outstanding! At first I thought I'd burned the cheese because I could see tiny bits of color in the sauce... then I realized it was extremely tiny bits of the blue part of the Stilton. Weird color or not, this Welsh Rarebit recipe is a keeper. Perfect for breakfast but I will also use it for hors d'oeuvres. Delish!

I've had basic welsh rarebit before but the addition of blue cheese, the garlic rub, bacon and tomatoes really push it up to another level. The beer and the blue cheese do turn the cheese mixture a funky color but the bacon, tomatoes and chives do a good job hiding it. These would be great on ficelle as hors d'oeuvres.

Very tasty! I had cheddar and blue cheese I needed to use up; the blue cheese was so blue in color that it did turn the rarebit a weird brown color. But I put a bit more cheddar on top before the broiling step and the final product was still an appetizing color. This was a good supper.
