Serving Suggestion

Enjoy!

Tips

Pay close attention as you barbecue the cheese because it can quickly go from perfectly grilled to burnt. Once one side of the slices develops a golden crust, flip them gently using a spatula or tongs.

Tips

The BBQ time will depend on the type of grilling cheese and the thickness of the slices. As a general guideline, grill the slices for about 2-3 minutes per side. Look for that beautiful golden-brown crust to form, indicating that it is perfectly grilled and starting to soften. Adjust the timing as needed to achieve the desired texture and flavour.

Tips

Serve immediately after the cheese is done. It is best completely fresh from the BBQ or grill pan, served in already-prepared burger buns.

What cheese is best for grilled cheese?

To put cheese on the BBQ, go for grilling cheese – there are different types, and if they are labelled grilling cheese, they work perfectly on the BBQ because of their high melting point. Halloumi is a popular choice with its salty flavour and firm texture, and grilled, it develops a beautiful golden crust while maintaining its shape. Paneer, a fresh Indian cheese, has a mild taste and a firm, chewy texture, and it also works perfectly on the BBQ. The same goes for Queso Blanco, a Mexican cheese, that has a slightly salty and milky flavour, and when grilled, it becomes soft and creamy with a slightly charred exterior.

What to make with grilled cheese?

Grilled cheese burgers are not the only way to serve grilled cheese. You can also use it in sandwiches, on salad instead of, for example, feta, on pizza, and in quesadillas or warm paninis. Grilled cheese skewers are also a great choice. Thread chunks or thick slices onto skewers along with colourful vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes. Grill them until golden and crispy, and you will have a delicious and visually appealing dish perfect for summer.
