FAQ

What can you add to a grilled cheese to make it taste better?

Bacon is a delicious flavor on its own, but fortunately, it pairs well with a variety of cheeses. For example, Colby, Mild Cheddar, Muenster, Provolone, or even Monterey Jack.

Is butter or mayonnaise better for grilled cheese?

“Any jam, any chutney, even dijon mustard, almost any condiment will lend itself to a grilled cheese sandwich,” Werlin said. “Adding ingredients like chutney, pepper jelly, tomato jam, or bacon jam can totally change the flavor profile.”

Can you use bacon grease instead of butter for grilled cheese?

Mayonnaise is the key to making the best grilled cheese you’ve ever had. The next time you make one, spread it on instead of slathering it in butter; it will add tang and make the bread perfectly crisp.
