Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices bread
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cooked smoked beef, shredded
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded smoked beef with the BBQ sauce and stir until evenly coated.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of the softened butter, swirling to coat the surface.
  3. Lay two slices of bread in the skillet, butter‑side down. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese, add the beef mixture, then sprinkle the remaining cheese.
  4. Place the remaining two slices of bread on top, butter‑side up, and press gently with a spatula.
  5. Cook for 3‑4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then flip, add the remaining butter to the newly exposed side, and cook another 3‑4 minutes until both sides are crisp and the cheese is fully melted.
  6. Remove the sandwich, let it rest for a minute, slice diagonally, and serve.
