Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients. If adding bacon, cook it in a skillet until crispy.

  2. 2

    Butter the Bread

    Spread butter on one side of each slice of Grand Central Como bread.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, layer the Tillamook cheddar cheese and cooked bacon (if using). Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.

  4. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Fries

    While the sandwich is grilling, cook the fries according to package instructions or your preferred method.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once the sandwich is grilled to perfection, remove it from the skillet. Cut it in half and serve it alongside the fries.
