Happy #grilledcheesemonth Cabot fans! Here's how to host a Grilled Cheese Party! Click To TweetHow to Build Your Grilled Cheese Bar
You will need to provide:
- An assortment of breads, cheeses, vegetables, proteins and spreads (see below for ideas)
- Cutting boards and knives for assembly
- Griddles, large skillets and/or a Panini press for cooking the sandwiches. We love our Lodge Cast Iron Square Panini Press.
- Plates and napkins
- Optional: A pot of tomato soup—the classic pairing for grilled cheese sandwiches. Our Tomato-Cheddar Soup recipe serves 6!
If someone wants to help, ask them to supply drinks and dessert! We paired our creations with a lovely Rosé and a variety of delicious beers.
Build Your Own Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Here are our picks for the ultimate grilled cheese party spread:
Step 1: Choose Your Butter
Cabot’s creamy award-winning butter, of course!

Step 3: Stack Your Favorite Cheese(s)
Cabot Colby Jack Cheese Cracker Cuts, Cabot Vermont Sharp Cracker Cuts, Cabot Vermont Extra Sharp Cracker Cuts
(We think anything from our Cracker Cuts line is ideal—and comes pre-sliced for your convenience!)Â
