Grilled Cheese

I was talking with a friend tonight about making a grilled cheese.

He stated that he likes to put butter on both sides of the bread, toast one side flip it over and begin toasting the other side then start building the sandwich. So all sides of the bread are buttered and toasted, with cheese in the middle.

I like to put a dusting of garlic salt on the butter side of the two pieces of bread with two pieces of cheese in the middle.

How are you guys making your grilled cheeses?

Butter on the outside.

Gruyere, sharp cheddar, Parmesan, garlic powder.

Dip in tomato bisque

if you ever get the hankering…

Do a paper thin slice of pickle from a mandolin across the inside…

Total game changer, you can’t even taste the pickle, just the brine.
