The time has come. The cat is out of the bag. My secret has been revealed. My [new] boss now knows my true identity: GrilledShane. Not only is she interested but is also extremely impressed. She lent me a panini cookbook and allowed me to “have” a loaf of our signature bread, Milton’s Wheat, to… [ Read More ]
I have only created one Thanksgiving grilled cheese sandwich in the three plus years of this blog. I wanted to change that this year. After my 2009 creation, Pumpkin Pie Grilled Cheese, I had a lot to live up to. I had to make this sandwich bigger and better. I had to think far outside the… [ Read More ]
The tuna melt is a sandwich (grilled cheese sandwich?) that some love while others simply gross out at the thought. The “haters” wonder why you would want warm tuna cooked with cheese melted on on top. I wonder why you wouldn’t want warm tuna cooked with cheese melted on top?! I mean seriously, a tuna melt… [ Read More ]
With it being my day off (last Thursday), I decided that I would once again head to Whole Foods’ remnant cheese section and see what bargains I could find.

The previous week, I had seen… [ Read More ]
With a few days off from work and not much to do, I recently headed to Whole Foods hoping to discover some great cheese in the remnant basket. Unfortunately, I had no luck. There were a few small pieces of a truffle cheese but I couldn’t justify the $5 price tag for such a small… [ Read More ]
Recently, I traveled to Whole Foods to see if they had any type of potato bread (mix, fresh, not fresh) to turn this awesome Daily Spud recipe into a grilled cheese. Instead I stumbled on Whole Foods’ “cheese remnant” section (which I had thought they discontinued) where I found two cheeses I had never heard… [ Read More ]
As I previously mentioned, the fam traveled to West Side Market, where we purchased multigrain bread and I made an awesome smoked cheddar grilled cheese. However, I didn’t tell you the complete story. I didn’t tell you about our cheese purchase: Le Merlemont from The Cheese Shop. That is the featured ingredient in this sandwich,… [ Read More ]
Recently, the sous chef, mr. sous chef and I traveled to the West Side Market, looking for various bargains. Many, many years ago, the fam and a lot shorter version of myself would go. My small size lead me to be scared/intimidated by the the large crowds leading to a freaked out grilledshane. Just picture that… [ Read More ]
Yes, it has been awhile. Yes, life has gotten in the way. Yes, I am well on my way to a management role at my newly remodeled restaurant job. Yes, I now have a career and not a job. Go me! However, you are probably not here to listen to me ramble, you want to… [ Read More ]
