Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients. Choose your protein: grilled ham, roast beef, or turkey, and select your preferred cheese: cheddar, Swiss, or provolone.

  2. 2

    Butter the Bread

    Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of Texas toast.

Assembly

    Layer Ingredients

    On the non-buttered side of 4 slices of Texas toast, layer your choice of protein followed by a slice of cheese.

    Top with Bread

    Place another slice of Texas toast on top of each assembled sandwich, buttered side facing out.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches on the skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

    Serve

    Once golden and melted, remove from the skillet. Optionally, spread mustard or mayonnaise on the inside before serving. Cut in half and enjoy!
