I should have said it was t'OH's speed method when they're in too much hurry to do things properly, rather than one I favour myself.

Giant in Pastyland now
Croque madame
Croque monsieur
Lazy version of both with different melted cheeses like mozzarella and whichever maybe a smoked one
Cheese on toast but with meats added or any or the cheeses
Toasties made with cheese and meats as before
Including ham, pulled pork, ham, pulled chicken, corned beef, roasted chicken with the skin as a crispy bit or without, so many bbq or other sauces, seasoning and chopped herbs, mainly chives with ham and cheese.
My bastardised Jamie Olivers tuna melt piadina thats an inch thick pan fried and fluffy but dense then cut in half lengthways for a giant pan fried sandwich stuffed with whichever above.
Impossible to choose, whatever stuff is available and how much effort I can be bothered to make really.
Lazy effort would be air frier ham and cheese on bread, maybe some mustard or chives.

I love all the variations but, in the case of a cheese toastie (as opposed to the pan fried Croque Monsieur) I like to add a processed cheese slice for cheap and nasty kicks.

That’s the proper pub grill . Decades ago I used to love toasted cheese and onion sandwiches made on them. Actually just got an urge for a proper pint of Guinness and one of them .Not sure you could call cheese on toast world stage but visitors to Ireland discover that in many, many of it's numerous pubs the only food on offer (apart from Manhattens peanuts and Tayto crisps) is the toasted cheese(/ham) sandwich. It is slightly different in execution to previously discussed variations, there is a job specific double grill that the publicans use to knock out tasty cheese toasties in a few minutes.

We have an excellent flat panini maker at work which does a bloody brilliant American style grilled cheese - has become a lunch staple.
However, give me a grill and proper cheese on toast any day. Not a fan of the toastie - don't like the hard crimped edges

Cheese on toast ftw.
What the Americans call a 'grilled cheese' is actually a fried cheese sandwich. I've never tried one because I don't trust any recipe created by people who don't know the difference between a grill and a frying pan. Would you buy a car off someone who told you it was a helicopter?

Peanut butter and banana sandwich fried in a pan (rape seed or sunflower oil) is spectacular.

Wasn't that Elvis's favourite sandwich? About a days calories in each one!

I grew up in NYC. I never saw a grilled cheese sandwich that had anything to do with frying.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
It's missing the accompanying pint of Guinness from your previous post...

Next time you’re in, could you please make a note of the make/model of this excellent panini maker?
I’m prepping for the potentially permanent loss of my vintage Breville.

Yep. A PB, B&B

(although, I suspect that in much the same way as asking for a Lemmy in a bar won’t get you a JD&Coke, nor will asking for a Velvet Elvis in a grill joint get you a PBB&B)

Celtic fringe fail. all we need now is someone fron Cornwall to say they make toastees in a trouser press or something.
Anglo Saxons; the true masters of the melted cheese and bread based snack/light meal...

I’m very sad. It’s under the stool in the corner of the kitchen. Every time I catch a glimpse of it I recall, in Proustian emotional detail, the many many many nights of staggering home to my Dad’s place late late so late it’s early and scalding my mouth on the molten cheese, dipping the dry crusts into extra mayo, sucking down tea of the perfect temperature before swerving up the stair wall to bed

Aparently if you add the number of days since you last had a cheese toastee to the date you had it...

I love my tuna melts done this way, for absolute preference I use my cast iron griddle pan. Sometimes I like to fry the tuna melt fried in a blend of good olive oil and butter.
