Happy National Grilled Cheese Day!

There’s something incredibly satisfying about a perfectly grilled cheese sandwich. It’s simple, comforting, and always hits the spot. Whether you’re craving a quick lunch or a nostalgic snack, this classic dish is a favorite for a reason. While many people make their grilled cheese in a pan or oven, using an outdoor grill like the PGS Grill can elevate the experience to a whole new level.

Grilling your cheese on an open flame gives it that perfect crispy exterior and gooey, melted center that you just can’t achieve with other methods. Plus, it’s a great way to add some fun and flair to your next backyard gathering. If you're looking for something different from the usual burgers and hot dogs, why not try a unique twist like the Crunchy Fajita Grilled Cheese? Here's how to make it on your PGS Grill.

The Recipe

To create this delicious fusion, you’ll need a few key ingredients:

  • White bread sliced no more than half an inch thick
  • Monterey Jack cheese
  • Diced jalapeños
  • Grilled green peppers
  • Grilled onions
  • Soft butter
  • Tortilla chips

If you want to add some extra protein, consider including shredded rotisserie chicken or thinly sliced steak. The combination of flavors and textures makes this sandwich a real crowd-pleaser.

Recipe and Grill Preparation

Before you start grilling, make sure your PGS Grill is clean and preheated to medium heat. This ensures even cooking and prevents the bread from sticking. While the grill warms up, prepare your sandwich by spreading a generous amount of softened butter on one side of each slice of bread. Layer two slices of Monterey Jack cheese in the middle, then add your grilled veggies, jalapeños, and tortilla chips. If you're adding chicken or steak, place it on top of the cheese.

Grilling

Once the grill is ready, place the sandwich over direct heat and close the lid. Let it cook for about 3 minutes on the first side. Then flip it over and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. You’ll notice the bread becoming golden and crisp, while the cheese melts beautifully. The result is a sandwich that’s both crunchy and creamy, with those perfect grill marks that look as good as they taste.

Eating

For the best experience, eat your Crunchy Fajita Grilled Cheese right away. The combination of crispy bread, melted cheese, and spicy toppings creates a flavor explosion that’s hard to beat. Pair it with a cold beer, some chips, and salsa, or a warm bowl of chicken tortilla soup for a complete meal. Whether you're hosting friends or just enjoying a quiet afternoon, this grilled cheese is sure to impress.
