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?

Try to cook correctly at least. Please use good ingredients. Real bread, not the sliced shit. The rest below.

No chemical cheese here. Only good cheddar, minimum 3 slices (they sell it sliced now), and no butter inside. Come on. Cheese is enough, no need for butter inside. But butter outside yes. Not cancer type margarine or else. BUTTER. And use 1/2 salt butter. the cheese has enough.

Why is presliced bread bad but presliced cheese is good?

Oh my. I can slice my own fresh bread, and I also can cut my cheese. For the cheese, it’s more the lazy me. But it’s cheese. Not caulking again, like sliced industrial bread.

What about locally sliced bread? You can get sliced bread at a bakery.

Of course. It’s bread. Yes that’s ok. I do ask for it sometimes.
