Top 5 Grilled Cheese Sandwiches + CONTEST

Posted on May 1, 2013 by bsinthekitchen| 3 Comments

National Grilled Cheese Month - Top 5 Grilled Cheese Sandwiches + CONTEST | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

I just can’t let go of the daily grilled cheese posts…

Therefore I have decided to do a roundup of my top 5 sandwiches of the month (in no particular order). I also wanted to use this opportunity to help promote an awesome contest being hosted by Wisconsin Cheese’s Grilled Cheese Academy. I have found myself gazing at the amazing grilled cheese sandwiches on their website more than once, and it is with great pain that I am unable to enter any of their contests since I’m Canadian (and there have been a few!). Even though I can’t enter, I hope all you wonderful U.S. readers/grilled cheese lovers will take a moment to check it out. There are some awesome prizes, and they choose 11 winners so your odds are better than most contests!

The Mozzarella Stick Grilled Cheese

Posted on April 29, 2013 by bsinthekitchen| 3 Comments

Mozzarella Stick Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

Technically a mozzarella stick is already grilled cheese…The bread just dried up, fell apart and reunited in the form of crumbs surrounding that delicious stick of mozzarella! Of course, I wasn’t about to make a mozzarella stick and call it a grilled cheese, so I went about breading this delicious sandwich with panko crumbs to create the Mozzarella Stick Grilled Cheese!

Scalloped Potato Grilled Cheese

Scalloped Potato Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

Mmmm mmmm mmM! What a grilled cheese! Gooey cheese, crunchy potatoes, all my favourite parts of scalloped potatoes, in my favourite kind of sandwich! I gotta say potatoes certainly do go well in grilled cheese sandwiches (see Baked Potato Grilled Cheese). Now for me, the best part of scalloped potatoes is the crunchy potatoes you get on the side and the top, so that’s what I was looking to emphasize (and boy did I ever!). If you love the creaminess of scalloped potatoes, all you have to do is either, cook the potatoes less, so they’re not as crunchy, or boil down a quick creamy sauce with milk, butter, and flour to go in the grilled cheese. I almost want to make another right now just to try a saucier version!

Plum, Bacon, Blue Cheese & Brie Grilled Cheese

Plum, Bacon, Blue Cheese & Brie Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

Ripe juicy plum, touches of sweet honey, the always satisfying salty/smokey/meaty bacon, brie melting all over it, and a touch of pungent blue cheese to pull it all together! This was probably one of the most interesting flavour profiles out of all the grilled cheeses I have done, and I loved it!

Roasted Red Pepper, Capocollo & Gouda Grilled Cheese

Roasted Red Pepper, Capocollo & Gouda Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

In an effort to use up all the meat and cheese in my fridge, I am constantly running ingredients through my mind trying to think of delicious pairings. Upon gazing into the heavenly glow of my fridge, my eyes settled on several ingredients: roasted red pepper, spicy Italian capocollo (/capicolla), red onion, and Gouda cheese. It all sounded great in my mind, and was no disappointment when I put it together!

The Masochist (Bacon, Avocado, Cheddar & Feta) Grilled Cheese

"The Masochist" Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

The Masochist…

At this point in National Grilled Cheese Month that is how I am feeling… Like a masochist. So it’s only appropriate that I bestow that same title upon my latest grilled cheese. In the attempt to make 30 grilled cheeses, one finds them self with an abundance of cheese in their fridge, wondering, what the heck am I going to make next!?! Looking into my fridge, pairing ingredients in my mind, I decide on my next grilled cheese.

The German Grilled Cheese

The German Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

If anyone has read the About the BS tab on our blog, you may have noticed we have a very German last name. Well our last name actually means “Germaner” or the literal translation would be “German Boy”, so it only seemed fitting that we should honour our heritage with this German Grilled Cheese. Let’s get to the recipe to see if it meets those high German standards!

The Greek Grilled Cheese

Posted on April 22, 2013 by bsinthekitchen| Leave a comment

The Greek Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

I’m stepping out of my usual ooey gooey, melty grilled cheese territory with this one! It’s a veggie packed, crunchy, creamy grilled cheese, and it’s delicious! A traditional greek salad, in sandwich form! Since feta is a more solid cheese, you don’t get that stringy meltyness from it when it heats up, instead it retains it’s shape for the most part, but gets extra creamy, which is equally delicious and a nice change! I was slightly concerned about how well the cucumbers would hold up under the heat (soggy cucumbers are gross!), but they remained crunchy, taking on a more pickle like crunch, rather than the cucumbers usual fresh crunch.

The Cuban Grilled Cheese

The Cuban Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

I believe this sandwich could be a turning point in my life, marking the start of an exciting new relationship with mustard and pickles. I have never been a huge fan of mustard, and hesitated to put a bunch on this sandwich, but I did it anyways, and am sure glad I did! The mix of mustard and pickle, with the Swiss cheese, and all the hearty meat was so great!

I know this recipe isn’t much different than an actual Cuban sandwich, so to rocket it into grilled cheese territory I loaded it up with Swiss cheese! Cheese on the bottom, cheese in the middle and cheese on top! Gluing all those wonderful ingredients together into a beautiful, beeautiful sandwich! Praise Cuba!!

The Montreal Grilled Cheese

The Montreal Grilled Cheese | bsinthekitchen.com #grilledcheese #sandwich #bsinthekitchen

Stacks of smoked meat.

Layers of melted cheese curds.

Mustard smeared rye bread.

It’s a Montreal smoked meat sandwich on steroids (a.k.a. with cheese). Juicy smoked meat, rich, salty cheese curds, paired with lots of tangy mustard, sandwiched between two pieces of crunchy rye bread, I’ll be tasting this one for days! I sat there like a proud Canadian would, devouring this sandwich in my plaid flannel shirt, and YES I even spilled mustard on it! It was a glorious moment, and though I have not an inch of French in me, I proudly ate this Montreal inspired meat and cheese fest!
