Boudin Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipes

GRILLED BOUDIN WITH ONIONS, PEPPERS, AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, olive oil, and seafood seasoning in a large bowl. Stir until evenly combined. Set aside while you preheat the grill.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place boudin directly on the grate. Place vegetable mixture in a grill basket. Grill for 5 minutes. Turn boudin over, stir the vegetables, and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sausage reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 5 minutes more.
• Place boudin in hot dog buns, top with mustard, and serve with vegetables.

THE PERFECT GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Oven method (great for a crowd of six or fewer): Put a rimmed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Make one sandwich per person: Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat. Place on the preheated baking sheet and cook until the cheese starts to melt, about 5 minutes. Flip the sandwich and bake until golden brown, an additional 5 minutes.
• Panini press method (for crispy crunchy sandwich that needs minimal attention): Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Preheat a panini press to medium heat. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat and place in the press. Close the top and cook until lightly browned and the cheese is melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Skillet method (fool-proof and low-tech): Sandwich 2 slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread. Preheat a skillet over medium-low heat. Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon of fat and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the sandwich, and continue cooking until browned and the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Great combos:
• 1. Pepper jack and sourdough, brushed with chili oil
• 2. American and white bread, brushed with butter
• 3. Swiss and rye, brushed with mayo
• 4. Cheddar and brioche, brushed with butter

BOUDIN GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Take one link of boudin sausage and peel the skin off. Cut it into about 1 inch pieces and put in bowl or other vessel.
• Microwave for about 1 1/2 minute.
• Heat skillet on low medium, I use non stick skillet.
• Butter one side of piece of bread lay in heated skillet buttered side down, top it with boudin link you heated in microwave.Take the inch pieces one at a time and place on the piece of bread in skillet ,press Boudin around with a fork until it fits on the piece of bread. Be careful to keep the boudin in the center working outwards not falling off the edge.
• Top boudin with a slice of kraft cheese.If you really like it cheesy use 2 but one is just right for me.
• Then add the other piece of bread that you have buttered, put the buttered side top up, just like making a grilled cheese sandwich.
• Keep flipping with spatula until desired brown color is reached. I smash it down a little with patula each time I flip.
• Cut in half and serve.
