This Smoked Brisket Grilled Cheese is the ultimate comfort food with a smoky twist! Tender, flavorful smoked brisket is layered with melted cheese between buttery, crispy slices of bread for a delicious sandwich thatโ€™s perfect for lunch or dinner.

๐Ÿ“‹ Ingredients:

  • 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, Texas toast, or brioche works well) ๐Ÿž
  • 1/2 cup smoked brisket, thinly sliced or shredded ๐Ÿ–
  • 2 slices cheddar cheese ๐Ÿง€
  • 2 slices mozzarella or provolone cheese ๐Ÿง€
  • 2 tablespoons butter ๐Ÿงˆ
  • Optional: BBQ sauce or spicy mayo for dipping ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ

๐Ÿ“ Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:

  1. Heat the brisket:
  • If using leftover brisket, warm it up in a skillet or microwave just until heated through.
  1. Butter the bread:
  • Spread a generous layer of butter on one side of each bread slice.

2. Assemble the Grilled Cheese:

  1. Layer the sandwich:
  • Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in a heated skillet over medium heat.
  • Add one slice of cheddar cheese, then top with the warmed smoked brisket. Layer the mozzarella or provolone on top of the brisket, followed by the second slice of bread, buttered side up.

3. Grill the Sandwich:

  1. Cook the grilled cheese:
  • Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.
  1. Flip carefully:
  • Flip the sandwich carefully to ensure even cooking on both sides. You may need to reduce the heat to prevent the bread from browning too quickly before the cheese melts.

4. Serve:

  1. Slice and serve:
  • Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Slice it in half and serve hot.
  1. Optional dips:
  • Serve with BBQ sauce, spicy mayo, or a dipping sauce of your choice for extra flavor.
