homecooked grilled cheese

To be fair, it's tricky to not burn a toasted cheese while still getting a good melt. I feel like it goes from nicely browned to black and charred over the course of approximately 2.8 seconds.

There are some uncarbonized bits. Nice start though.

Nowhere near enough toasting on this, keep it in the pan for an extra 5 each side next time.

OP thought we wouldn't notice this blatantly raw sandwich in front of us

r/steak also has good tips for a sear

mrbuild1t@reddit

Maybe hours to add an extra bit of sear but not too much though. As you can see in the picture he has no toasting so I feel like an extra few mins or even hours would do the trick 👌🏻

If you have to ask you’re clearly not ready. Hours obviously.

A quaalude and a double gin and tonic at 1030 in the morning was a total way of life.

What a waste of good cheese. Were you able to scrape the black off? Or straight into the garbage?

[-]

AngelLK16@reddit

Did it actually taste okay or good or burnt to hell?

"Mid" I think you're complacent with licking charcoal, OP. Smores-aint-dun-until-it-tastes-like-satan's-ass lookin mf'er"

Interesting. I would have tried to scrape off all the burnt outside to try to save the sandwich. I don't think I'd like the charcoal taste. Then again, I did accidentally charcoal a Korean sweet pancake not so long ago, tried to scrape/break off the burnt pieces and it did taste okay. 🤔 It did have caramel on the outside, which can burn.

I guess you saved that cheese inside from the garbage.

Ah yes my favorite, cremated cheese

Why’d you have to burn it so bad?

Gordan Ramsay would be proud

LostinQuiddity@reddit

If you dunk it in tomato soup, the burn softens

[-]

ThePennedKitten@reddit

I hope you scraped it. Some of y’all seem to just be able to eat burned food… that shit makes me wretch.

Did this sandwich owe you money?

Grigori_the_Lemur@reddit

It will coat your innards with lubricating fats and the activated charcoal will help if accidentally poisoned.

As a long-time grilled cheese sandwich fan - it actually takes some experience to master all the variables. The heat settings, time, the pan, even the type of bread can all radically affect the result. Once when my sister was visiting I wanted to make grilled cheese sandwiches but I couldn't find the bread I always use (a muffin loaf) so I substituted something different. Did everything else the same, burnt them black.
