Cheddar and pepper Jack.

@IanG_Richardson @GaryPoole while absolutely delicious, goat cheeses don't melt properly to give the right consistency for a grilled cheese sandwich.

your definition of 'classic' might be a little rigid too. Classic cars are 20th century. Classic rock is too. you might be thinking of 'classical'.

@IanG_Richardson @GaryPoole sounds about right. i reject American cheese on principle, even on grilled cheese. I mean, that's the only place it's passable, but so many other cheeses can elevate the gc sammich to sublime levels of deliciousness. My favorite right now is a truffled white cheese that tends to crumble a bit + mozzarella for consistency. But the bread must be seedy --no white bread. I am fancy.

@IanG_Richardson @GaryPoole oh that sounds amazing in a gc. i've probably had that combo in a tomato pie-- I tend to just grab whatever cheeses I have on hand to layer in between sliced tomatoes, baked in a pie crust. bleu always adds a nice depth to the flavor *chef's kiss*

@IanG_Richardson My wife hates goat cheese. She says it tastes like a goat smells. 😂

@GaryPoole american with just a touch of cheddar and/or swiss.
Rye bread preferred.
Mayo on the grilling side.

Bacon and/or tomato add-ons when available
