Brisket Grilled Cheese: Melty, Meaty, and Crispy Perfection 🥪🔥

Pulled out some leftover smoked brisket and decided to throw together a grilled cheese that hits different. Started with thick sourdough slices, brushed them with a bit of mayo instead of butter—helps get that golden crust. Layered on sharp cheddar and a handful of brisket, making sure to spread the meat evenly so every bite gets some. Added a few pickled onions for a little zing. Cooked it low and slow in a cast iron skillet, pressing it down with a spatula to get that crispy edge. Flipped once, waited for the cheese to melt and ooze out just a bit. The brisket stays juicy and the cheese gets all stringy. If the bread’s browning too fast, turning down the heat helps keep things from burning before the cheese melts. Cut it in half and let it cool for a minute before biting in. The combo of smoky brisket and gooey cheese with that crunch from the bread is just solid. If there’s any leftover brisket, this is one way to make sure it doesn’t go to waste. #brisketgrilledcheese #homemadefood #leftoverbrisket #Food #Cooking
