    Nice.
    Lacking one important detail - type of cheese?

    Kudos for elevating the humble grilled cheese to a new level by adding bacon the the bread. If it had been added to the sandwich it would somehow have violated the definition of “grilled cheese” sandwich. 
    Well played.

    I actually have a thread somewhere where I was doing something similar, just with a mix of cheese and pulled pork.  A friend did indeed object to it being described as a grilled cheese, and said it was more like a "melt".  

    In other words, I have learned my lesson!   =)

    nice! 

    Just pulled a 30% WW loaf out of the oven. Not as interesting as bacon bread, but I know what I’m having for lunch now.

    I was too busy catching up on the 400 unread posts in the “thread that is not dead” that I almost missed this one!

    Nice work!  Now all you need now is some homemade tomato cream soup. 👻

    I’d actually like to try PB&J on some of that bread, or an Elvis special.  Bacon has so many opportunities you would think it came from prep school and Ivy League college.

    Sadly the oldest child is a vegetarian and the youngest is a super picky eater.  

    The oldest does enjoy the straight grilled cheese I make for her though, as well as my mac and cheese.

    Is that the Forkish "Pan du pancetta"?  If so, we have done it a few times (incluiding once at Brisket Camp), and it's always a win.

    Great cook!

    I made a loaf - it was great! - and made sandwiches with tri-tip, thinly sliced. The tri-tip had been cooked using hickory smoke. Got to say, the sandwiches were so good. So utterly good.
