In my opinion, all grilled cheese sandwiches should be made on an actual grill. There’s something about that smoky flavor being infused into the cheese and bread that makes this ordinary recipe a special treat. For this recipe, we decided to use NW Blend smoking chips. They are a mix of Maple, Cherry and Alder for a balanced, subtle smoke flavor.
