Grilled Grilled Cheese Archives

Who doesn’t love a great, gooey grilled cheese sandwich? I’ve been making them for years, just like everyone else. And I really hadn’t thought of doing something different to them. But then, I came across this recipe from Alton Brown.

Not Your Usual Grilled Cheese

Sure, there’s creamy gooey cheese involved. And there’s even a grill involved. You could make these in a skillet on the stove top, they’re extra good cooked on a griddle on a grill. But the real game changers for me were the additions of ground mustard and smoked paprika. Wow.

Heat a griddle over a lit grill, or a large skillet (preferably cast iron) on the stove top, over medium-high heat.

In a bowl, combine the cheeses, dry mustard, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
Lay the bread butter-side down onto the griddle or skillet.
