# What You'll Need:

01 - Thick cut sourdough (2 slices)
02 - Room temperature butter (1 tablespoon)
03 - Mayo (2 teaspoons)
04 - Freshly shredded sharp cheddar (3.5 ounces)
05 - Freshly shredded Gruyère (1 ounce)

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Warm up your cast-iron pan on low heat. Slice your bread about 1/2-inch thick and shred both kinds of cheese
02 - Put a thin layer (1 teaspoon) of mayo on one face of each bread piece
03 - Drop butter in your warm pan, place bread with mayo facing down, stack all cheese on top, then cap with second slice, mayo facing up
04 - Put a lid on and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until you see a nice golden crust forming
05 - Carefully flip your sandwich, cover again and cook about 2 minutes until your cheese gets gooey and the other side turns golden
06 - Slice it corner to corner and eat right away while the cheese is still stretchy

# Additional Tips:

01 - Always shred your own cheese for smoother melting
02 - Mayo on the outside makes an amazing crispy exterior
03 - Gentle heat works best for melting cheese evenly
