Who's got a killer recipe? For some reason I've got a major hankering for a big old grilled cheese sandwich. Grilled, pan cooked, whatever, what can you offer up?

Texas toast, smoked gouda and american cheese and a cast iron skillet.
Butter the bread, add the cheese, heat your cast iron skillet to med-high heat and let it rip. (let the skillet heat soak for a few mins. to make sure its fully heated.
Once cooking, I check the edges of the toast to see when its browning. If you can lift the toast with out it bending, its ready to flip.

Good bread. Good cheese (not processed). Melt butter in pan, then put bread/sandwich on top of butter melting in pan. Toast/brown that side of the bread/sandwich. Butter the other side while that's cooking. Flip over. Toast/brown that side. Perfectly simple grilled cheese when the cheese is melted and the bread is browned.
Of course, you can always jazz it up with avocado and chicken and bacon!
I just now told my wife that next week we are doing grilled cheese. Thanks for your post which reminds me of my love of grilled cheese!

Since I'm from the land of cheese, have ya'll got me jazzed for a Great Grilled Cheese sandwich. I think I'm going to try a few cheeses. I really like Spinaker's recommendation of Texas toast. Yeah baby. I really think you just need a little imagination and run with it. Ribeyeguy, go wild with it & we do want pics.

I'm a firm believer in fried eggs on grilled cheese. I also really like a generous glop of Dijon mustard on the inside next to the cheese. Chives and chopped hot peppers are always delicious options, and the cheese must be very, very sharp.
Are you a dipper? I'm a fan of KC style Q sauce with some hot sauce mixed in.

I occasionally add some beef bologna to my grilled cheese. Another grilled cheese I like is swiss on rye grilled with the aforementioned butter.

If I were making one right now, I would use Texas toast, generously buttered with cheddar, pulled brisket point, bacon bits (real bacon, not that pink junk that grows in a plastic jar) and lightly sprinkle cinnamon on the top side before you flip it. Mom made those (minus the brisket) when I was a youngun and I still like them today. Different subject, but try cinnamon on pepperoni pizza, it's yummy!

This is a comfort food for me that needs no altering. Wonder bread, butter, Kraft American cheese. I appreciate the "adult versions" of the grilled cheese, but the one I make is from my childhood, and there are no alterations needed for me when I want my old favorite. Oh, and the Campbells Tomato soup with it is nice but not required.

I'm going to have to side with Shane Rakow here....
Plain old white (maybe honey wheat) bread, butter, and Kraft Singles (let's not get into the debate about that being cheese or not again).... light to medium brown on each side.... Comfort food indeed....
Now occasionally I will throw in the skillet buttered bread, swiss or american, and a big old slice of ham between the two pieces of cheese.... but i view that more as a hot ham and cheese.....
I feel like if you are adding more than cheese, butter, and bread you are making a panini or some other type of grilled/toasted sandwich.

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
Why go through all that work just grab a couple of slices of bread and spread some mayo on them and slap a piece or two of cheese on them and enjoy. No skillet to wash 😊

For the Campbell's soup made with one can of milk, of course. We like to cut bread into cubes, fry them with lots of butter, garlic salt, pepper, oregano. It does take a while to fry them without burning, but well worth the effort as low temps are a must. Add the fried tasties to the soup and along with the grilled cheese sammie and you are good to go.
You will need more bread than you originally think as they are so tasty.

Ok, I mentioned this once on my FB Page and clearly upset people, divided families, and created a firestorm of untold proportion. So you are warned what I am about to say is very controversial. A grilled cheese sandwich consists only of bread, cheese, and butter. Once you add anything else it ceases being a grilled cheese and becomes a grilled sandwich with cheese.
