8slicesThick sandwich breadCrusts on or removed as preferred
8slicesMozzarella cheeseReady to use
4slicesCheddar cheeseHalved lengthwise
8slicesBaconRaw, long enough to wrap around sandwiches
2tablespoonsButterSoftened, for grilling
Instructions
Preheat the grill or a large skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, add a small pat of butter and let it melt so the pan is lightly greased.
Assemble the sandwiches: place one slice of bread on a clean surface, top with one slice of mozzarella and two halves of cheddar. Top with a second slice of bread and press gently to seal.
Wrap each sandwich: take two slices of bacon and wrap them around the assembled sandwich, overlapping slightly. Position the bacon seams on the bottom.
Butter the outside: spread a thin, even layer of softened butter on the outer faces of each sandwich.
Cook the sandwiches: place the wrapped sandwiches on the preheated grill or skillet. Cook for about 4–5 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula.
Rest and slice: remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute. Use a sharp knife to slice each sandwich into two or three fingers.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For best texture, reheat in a preheated skillet or oven.
