Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Smoked Sausage by slicing it into thin rounds, about ¼ inch thick. Optionally, pan-fry the slices in a skillet for 3-4 minutes until slightly browned.
  2. Assemble the sandwich by buttering one side of each slice of bread. Layer cheese, sausage, and more cheese on the unbuttered side before closing with the second slice.
  3. Grill the sandwich over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  4. Let the sandwich rest for a minute before slicing diagonally. Serve warm with optional garnishes.
