BBQ Hot Ham and Cheese Panini!
Monday, August 24, 2009 at 3:45PM Courtney A few years ago for Christmas, I bought B a panini maker. B is in love with all things in the panini. Its the one thing he can actually cook for himself. Most of the time he concocts a fajita type wrap but sometimes he will throw on a quesadilla and I get a night off from cooking. All I have to do is make sure that we have some chicken cut up in the fridge and he is good to go. It truly was a great purchase we both love it!!
I finally decided it was time to make a recipe on the panini grill each week and to start off, I want to actually make paninis!! Each week I am going to try to incorporate a panini or recipe made on the panini into my menu planning! I might as well showcase one of our favorite things in the kitchen!!
My first recipe wasn't something I thought too much about. I think I saw a hot ham and cheese sandwich at a little restaurant in Myrtle Beach and knew I wanted to try it when we got home! My mom ran to the store for me and got us some ingredients to whip up a quick and easy meal. It worked out great for us cause I wasn't feeling too great that night, so it was fast and I thought it tasted great! Next time I think I would add some grilled purple onions!
BBQ Hot Ham and Cheese Panini Grill
- Ham
- Cheese (I used pepperjack and B used american)
- Nice Hard Bread
- BBQ Sauce
Slice your bread in half. (we used ciabatta squares) place ham and cheese on piece of bread. Spread a little BBQ sauce on the other piece. Place sandwiches pieces together and stick on the panini grill. Our grill doesn't have settings so I just watch till it looks to be toasted and the cheese is melted. Take off the grill, let cool a bit and enjoy! I think this recipe takes all of 2 minutes!

YUM -- it looks and sounds delicious! I'm obsessed with BBQ right now, so this is definitely appealing to me. :)
Have you checked out the Panini Happy blog? http://paninihappy.com. There are some awesome looking sandwiches on that site. I'm making the peach and bacon panini on Thursday!
Yummy! Thanks for sharing, can't wait to try that one!
