When my son makes grilled cheese sandwiches, he cuts them diagonally and sets them on the cut edge! No more sandwiches with one side that is damp from sitting on the plate.

My mother used to make the nicest grilled cheese sandwiches in a Le Creuset frying pan (enamel coating with iron). Those are quite heavy. I recently purchased a Chantal skillet (enamel coating with carbon steel) and am wondering if anyone has found a difference between the two products. Or possibly they are so different that I am going to have to replace it with the exact pan my mother used.

Holly-- get a black iron griddle, season it and don't clean it too much-- just wipe it with salt and a cloth while barely warm-- rinse and store after drying-- beats everything for price and fine food-- and I think is much better, anyway. I have a Lodge round griddle-- of course, there is a two burner model, too. Found new ones at Academy sports store-- for campers, hunters.
