Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients. Grate the cheddar cheese and set aside. If using, slice the tomato and prepare bacon bits.

  2. 2

    Butter the Bread

    Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Mix Spices

    In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, dried oregano, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Melts

    On the unbuttered side of two slices of bread, sprinkle a portion of the spice mixture, layer with grated cheddar cheese, and add optional ingredients like tomato or bacon bits if desired. Top with the other two slices, buttered side up.

  3. 5

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Press down lightly with a spatula for even cooking.

  4. 6

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Cut in half and serve hot with optional hot sauce on the side.
