Tramontina Grilled Cheese Recipe Contest

National Grilled Cheese Day is April 12th. To celebrate we are holding a Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe Contest! Details are in the post below.

I am really excited about National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day because Grilled cheese is one of my favorite sandwiches. I love how many ways you can make it. I have sampled many fine versions of this lunchtime favorite. My first grilled cheese memory is my mom making me a grilled cheese sandwich with plain white Wonder Bread and Kraft American Cheese with a side of Campbell's Tomato Soup. I have since updated my go-to recipe to a more grown-up version. 

My Go-To-Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe

Take 2 slices of good sourdough bread, butter both sides, and place 1 slice of PepperJack cheese and 1 slice of Cheddar cheese in-between the bread. Place in a med-low heated skillet or grill pan and grill golden brown on both sides until cheese is melted. Sometimes I will add an extra kick with red pepper flakes. 

Pro-Tip: Make sure your butter is room temperature to make spreading easier, and also make sure your cheese is at room temperature. You don’t want your bread to burn before the cheese has melted. 

Serve with a side of tomato soup, recipe for that is here.

Tools you'll need to make this melting delight: A Tramontina Cast Iron Grill Pan and a Cuisipro Fiberglass Large Slotted Turner.
