Chällerhocker and Ham Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Directions

1. Preheat your griddle to low-medium heat.

2. Place a slice of sourdough bread on a work surface. Add a generous layer of shredded Chällerhocker cheese.

3. Crumble small pieces of blue cheese over the Chällerhocker, concentrating them in a few spots rather than covering the entire sandwich.

4. Spread a thin layer of jalapeño pepper jelly (or drizzle with Mike's Hot Honey).

5. Top with 1–2 slices of Black Forest ham.

6. Add another generous layer of shredded Chällerhocker cheese and place a second slice of sourdough bread on top.

7. Butter the top slice of bread and sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Press a small amount of the remaining shredded Chällerhocker onto the buttered surface.

8. Place the sandwich on the griddle, cheese-side up. Cook until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.

9. Carefully flip the sandwich. Butter the second side, sprinkle with sea salt, and press a little more shredded Chällerhocker onto the outside of the bread.

10. Continue cooking until both sides are golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.

11. Remove from the griddle, let rest for 1–2 minutes, then slice and serve.
