1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients: sliced ham, cheddar cheese, bread, and butter. If using optional ingredients, slice the tomato and wash the lettuce.

2
Layer the Ingredients
Take two slices of bread and spread mustard on one side of each slice if desired. Layer 2 slices of ham on one slice of bread, followed by 2 slices of cheddar cheese. Add lettuce and tomato if using, then top with the second slice of bread, mustard side down.

3
Griddle the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, place the assembled sandwich in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
4
Flip the Sandwich
Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet around the edges of the sandwich. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted.

5
Slice and Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it sit for a minute. Slice in half and serve warm with additional mustard or side salad if desired.
