Its popularization in the US is linked to the introduction of sliced bread in the 1920s and processed cheese in the early 20th century.

Grilled sandwiches offer a delightful combination of textures and tastes, featuring crispy bread, melted cheese, and savory fillings.
The primary flavor profile is a balance of richness from the cheese, savory notes from meats (ham, turkey, roast beef, bacon) or vegetables (tomatoes, onions, peppers), and the buttery or toasted taste of the grilled bread. Herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning, are often added to enhance the overall flavor. The type of cheese used (cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, swiss) heavily influences the flavor, with each cheese bringing its own distinct characteristics.

Bread Selection
Opt for sturdy bread that can withstand grilling without becoming soggy. Sourdough, Italian bread, and Texas toast are excellent choices.
Cheese Selection
Select cheeses that melt well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, or swiss. A blend of cheeses can create a more complex flavor profile.
Grilling Technique
Use medium-low heat to allow the cheese to melt completely without burning the bread. Spread butter or mayonnaise on the outside of the bread for even browning and added flavor.
Even Cooking
Press down on the sandwich gently while grilling to ensure even contact with the pan or griddle, promoting uniform browning and melting.
Filling Combinations
Experiment with different fillings to create unique flavor combinations. Popular additions include ham, turkey, bacon, tomatoes, onions, peppers, and various sauces.
