ULTIMATE GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 Tbsp butter and olive oil to a skillet and heat over MED-LOW heat. Add diced onions, salt, pepper, fresh thyme and 1 tsp of fresh rosemary to the hot skillet and saute, stirring often, until onions are soft and starting to brown, about 10 minutes.
• Stir brown sugar into the onions and cook another minute.
• Transfer onions to a plate.
• Spread one side of two pieces of bread with a little bit of mayonnaise.
• To the same skillet, add remaining butter and rosemary, and heat over MED heat. Swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet with the melted butter.
• Add both pieces of bread, mayonnaise side down, and cook until bread is golden brown and crunchy, about 2-3 minutes.
• As soon as you add the bread to the skillet, add a bit of cheese to the top of each piece of bread. Once it starts to melt a little, sprinkle a couple tablespoons of the caramelized onions over the top of one of the pieces of bread.
• When the bread is good and golden brown, sandwich the pieces of bread together and cook on LOW until cheese is fully melted.
• Transfer to a plate, repeat with remaining slices of bread and ingredients.
• Slice and enjoy!

BEST GRILLED CHEESE EVER

Steps:

• Begin by roasting the chiles over the flame on your stovetop (or under the broiler) until the skin is totally blackened (if using fresh). When the chiles are totally charred, throw them into a plastic bag. Seal and allow them to steam and cool.
• Next, pour the white vinegar over the sliced red onion and let them sit awhile. This'll take away a little of the crazy onion flavor and leave them with a nice sweetness.
• Finally, make the special sauce: equal amounts of mayonnaise and Dijon. It's the simple things in life!
• When you're ready to make the sandwiches, scrape the blackened skin off the chiles. Scrape out the seeds, too, so you'll wind up with big pieces of roasted green chiles.
• For each sandwich, generously spread 2 pieces of rye bread with the special sauce. Lay on 2 slices of provolone, 2 slices of tomato, 2 slices of Cheddar... a nice layer of roasted green chiles... a few red onion slices... and one more slice of provolone just to hold it all together.
• Top with the other slice of bread and spread the outsides with a good amount of butter.
• Toast the sandwich in a skillet over medium-low heat until the cheese is thoroughly melted inside. Be careful not to burn the bread!

GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Stir the cream cheese, Miracle Whip and Montery Jack cheese together.
• Spread the cream cheese mixture over half of the bread, top with a cheese slice.
• Place another slice of bread over the cheese slice making a sandwich.
• Spread the second amount of Miracle Whip over the bread, using it like butter.
• Turn the sandwich over, spreading it onto that slice.
• Spray a frying pan with cooking spray and grill the sandwiches, turning once, until brown.
