If I’m feeling particularly inclusive of other cultures I’ll sprinkle about 1/2 pound of cheese on a flour tortilla and throw it in the microwave for 30-45 seconds. The cheaper and meltier the cheese the better, this recipe usually only gets broken out after a pretty good bender.
You fool! Take the extra 30 seconds and cook it in a frying pan so the tortilla gets crisp. Microwave.... Smh. WOULD YOU MICROWAVE A GRILLED CHEESE????

Who uses a stove anymore....lol....
Alcohol+stoves=very bad
Hungover/Bender Recovery+stove=potentially very bad
Microwave+booze+booze munchies=safe table fare/house still standing...well most of the time
 
hes right
As another public safety announcement to young uns on here lemme tell y'all something.

I shared a trailer house with two buddies for my first step into the adult world. We were given a microwave/convection oven or maybe toaster oven i cannot recall.(THIS appliance will play an important role in this safety announcement) Having a place of our own we of course felt it was necessary to invite some our closest friends over. By this I mean of course 15-100 of our closest friends. After this evening of socialness I awoke and at roughly 4:00 that afternoon and felt that a ham and cheese hot pocket was needed as sustenance. Apparently I attempted to drink my weight in various forms of alcohol( I should've chosen my I.Q. a much lower number.

Anyway, somewhere during the previous nights events, someone felt the need to switch from microwave to convection oven and turn the temp all the way up. I did not notice this for some unusual reason....

I joined my roommates and the guests that had awoken from their slumber in various locations throughout our domicile. There was a very serious session of 007 Goldeneye going on and it would've been rude to stay in the kitchen and ignore our guests.

Well.....let's say the hotpocket was completely forgotten about until one of the slightly less hungover guests noticed that the smoke drifting in was not from the Woodstock as we all decided that this was the culprit previously was not from the wood stove.
This is how I learned that a hot pocket if left unattended, but more importantly a hungover individual left unattended, can thoroughly destroy a plastic plate, permanently fuse a hot pocket sleeve to said plate, and render a hot pocket totally unfit for human consumption ( more than it already is, still love me some hotbpockets though)by charring it inside and out to the point that the only way to see "what it looks like on the inside" is to use the hatchet for splitting kindling and open 'er up.

Sorry to hijack thread and draw this out. I guess I could have simply said, If you have a house party, check your appliances before use. Oh ya and your smoke detectors. We had them we just took out the batteries because the smoke from the wood stove kept setting them off.
 
There’s been a lot of talk about bacon grease on this thread, but not enough mention of the great creator of that luscious nectar. Bacon belongs on a grilled cheese.
Question for the panini policemen(@gouch @thomas89 ) : do bacon bits turn it into a different sandwich? Is it no longer a grilled cheese but instead a “bits and cheese”?
Bacon is still overrated.

Sure reminds me of my younger days. Usually we started with a couple more beers before we tried food.
 
Alright folks, straight to the pig pen here. What is the preferred oil/fat/pucky/whatever lather you desire for making a great grilled cheese sandwich?

Butter, but the secret is to put it on BOTH sides of the bread. Toast one side of each bread slice in the pan, then put the cheese between the toasted sides and put the whole thing back in the pan to toast the outside as you normally would...it's killer
 
Hear me out, a little bit of ranch dressing, especially on a sandwich with meat. Adds some nice creaminess
Never tried it but sounds interesting….

Although you gave me another idea. Do you think a grilled cheese with cream cheese and jalapeños tastes like a giant jalapeño popper? Crumble some bacon in there? I might have to try that.
