Steps:
- Oven method (great for a crowd of six or fewer): Put a rimmed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Make one sandwich per person: Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat. Place on the preheated baking sheet and cook until the cheese starts to melt, about 5 minutes. Flip the sandwich and bake until golden brown, an additional 5 minutes.
- Panini press method (for crispy crunchy sandwich that needs minimal attention): Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Preheat a panini press to medium heat. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat and place in the press. Close the top and cook until lightly browned and the cheese is melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Skillet method (fool-proof and low-tech): Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Preheat a skillet over medium-low heat. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the sandwich, and continue cooking until browned and the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes more.
- Great combos:
- 1. Pepper jack and sourdough, brushed with chili oil
- 2. American and white bread, brushed with butter
- 3. Swiss and rye, brushed with mayo
- 4. Cheddar and brioche, brushed with butter

Steps:
- Place 2 slices Pullman or other white bread on a cutting board and spread mayonnaise on top side of each; this is key to a golden, delectable crunch. Heat a small skillet (nonstick, ideally) over medium. Slide in a dab of butter. When it melts, place 1 slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, in skillet; top with a few slices American cheese or cheddar; season with pepper. Top with second slice of bread, mayonnaise side up. When underside is golden brown, about 4 minutes, turn sandwich and add another dab of butter to skillet. Press down on sandwich to encourage even browning and to help melt cheese-be gentle, don't smash it. Cook until second side is golden brown and cheese is melted. Eat immediately, preferably with Campbell's Tomato Soup.
