Just about any cheese that melts! Depending on what mood you're in.

Sonoma Jack is one of my favorites.

As with Andy, it depends on my mood and what's immediatly available.

In addition to cheddar I'm kind of partial to Gruyere. Also I often mix cheeses, going with maybe Swiss, Cheddar, and Jack.

I also like a hearty sandwich: the cheese, or cheeses, some chopped red onion, twice-smoked bacon, and sliced tomato. All the fillings are sandwiched between the cheeses, so the cheese melts into them as the sandwich is grilled.

I prefer Gouda cheese. If you are having a hard time finding Gouda, a young Edam or Jack can be substituted.

I like mine like a mini pizza, well more or less. Love it with Cheddar/matured tasty cheese, with anchovies and a sprinkling of smoked paprika and ground oregano. Or add some shredded salami/pepperoni onto that.

And McMurphy - you are so right -bacon does make everything better

As much as I love grilled cheese sandwiches, I'm surprised I don't make them more often. Two of my current favorites are a sharp cheddar with strips of roasted red bell pepper, and some sort of tangy swiss with sauteed mushroom slices. Of course, your basic, plain cheese and bread is just fine, too!

mjb.

ps: Was it Alton Brown who once made grilled cheese by heating some firebrick in a 500 degree oven, then putting the sandwich between them to actually cook it?

I like Munster on just about anything

My personal twist on grilled cheese is taking fresh croissants and laying a slice of munster on them face up, then putting them in a toaster oven. Its pretty much the most amazing lunch ever.

Open-faced munster grilled cheese croissants FTW
