Spread one side of sandwich with about 1/2 TBS of the garlic butter. Place onto your griddle, spread side down.
Coat top side with additional 1/2 TBS garlic butter.
Flip sandwich after a couple minutes and once bottom starts to turn golden brown.
Cook for additional 2 minutes until cheese is fully melted.
Repeat with additional sandwiches.
- Low and Slow: Cook the sandwiches on medium low to ensure we get a nice golden crust on the exterior and fully melt the cheese in the middle of the sandwich.
- Garlic Hack: If you're in a pinch use garlic powder in the butter instead of fresh garlic.
- Extra Toppings: Add extras like crispy bacon, fresh spinach, sliced tomatoes, or ham of added flavor and texture.
