Prior to talking about this particular grilled cheese sandwich, which was very delicious, I want to update the GrilledShane world on a few things. I know I have said it before, but this is especially true now. I am going to give you, my devoted reader, a bigger insight into the behind the scenes world of trying to grow the...
Since I started this blog, every year I have created a Passover grilled cheese sandwich. Those sandwiches featured various Passover ingredients, such as hard boiled eggs, horseradish and apples. When I started to think about what ingredients I would use in this Passover grilled cheese, I started and stopped at celery. Yes, celery. Not that exciting in the least and...
I have been a fan of Kerrygold cheese for as long as I can remember. Their sharp cheddars and Dubliner are simply fantastic and up there with some of the best cheeses around. With that being said, I was extremely excited when I received an email asking if I would like to be a part of the Kerrygold Food Blogger...
A few weeks ago, I received an email from Cabot asking me if I would like to try their “Light” cheeses as they are in the process of rolling out new packaging. I thought about it for a split second and then replied saying, in slightly different words, “Hell Yes!” I chose Light Sharp Cheddar (to be used in a...
I must start this blog entry with what I think was a pretty funny story; I just hope you find it funny as well (even if it is dorky). I wanted to make a new sandwich the other day but had absolutely no idea what to include in said sandwich so I went to a local grocery store to search their...
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 use in a grilled cheese....
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 hear about the new sandwich,...

Inspiration for my grilled cheese creations can come from the strangest places. This week was no exception. At Jimmy John’s, a sub place I am known to frequent, they have a vegetarian sub that I love. (#6 for those that have been to Jimmy John’s. I order it on multigrain.) As their menu reads: Layers of provolone cheese separated by real avocado...
Recently, I had taken a break from grilled cheese sandwiches as culinary classes were winding down for the semester and I wanted to focus on my studies. I had a final practicum consisting of knife skills and recipe, as well as a country presentation. Oh and the final. Thankfully, I can say I have completed everything with mostly flying colors....
