Grilling a sandwich makes the outside of the bread (or wrap) toasty and crispy, and makes the filling all warm and gooey.



  

You can grill a sandwich on your stove top, using a frying pan, a cast iron skillet, a cast iron griddle or a grill pan. Other options are

the George Forman Grill, a panini grill or a toaster oven. For more information on these indoor grilling options, scroll down below

the recipes.

If you have an outdoor barbecue, fire it up, oil the grate and throw (well, not literally) your sandwich or wrap on the grill. Be careful

not to let the filling drip through the grates. Grilling a sandwich on an outdoor grill adds a smoky flavor to an otherwise ordinary

sandwich.

Ê I've had a fascination with a Cuban Sandwich ever since I had one at a local restaurant. It was grilled to perfection, succulent and

full of flavor. It also looked easy to make.   á    is a great place to start for lots of tasty ideas. 0his

Ê 0here's no rule in the handbook that says you can't grill a BÔ0! Although not technically a grilled sandwich, the

 0his might have been the first grill pan ever to be used! Save some money and dig out your trusty old cast iron

pan. It holds the heat, it grills evenly and if it's been well seasoned over the years, it's virtually non-stick!

Ê   
 I have a large rectangular cast iron griddle that is ridged on one side and flat on the other. It lays across 2

burners and uses the heat from the stove for cooking. I've used this not only for sandwiches, but also French toast, pancakes,

grilled chicken and much more.

explanation, but it's a counter-top grill that is hinged and grills both sides of the sandwiches, hopefully with those appetizing ridge

Ê  ! 0here's probably a wedding gift sitting on a shelf in your basement covered in dust. Get that toaster oven out and
