Starting on November 1st, Grocery Outlet is having a 20% off wine sale! To pair with their Chardonnay, I make savory grilled cheese with bacon.
You know those Buzzfeed videos that share decadent recipes that are filled with so many calories you lose track? Yep, that’s where my husband got the idea for this bad boy. I bestow upon you, the savory grilled cheese with bacon.
To make this sandwich ready for dinner, I am going to pair it with some tasty Chardonnay from Grocery Outlet. Starting November 1st (tomorrow!), all of their wine is 20% percent off!
Did you know their wine buyers travel all around the globe to find the very best wine?
I say head to Grocery Outlet now to stock up before Thanksgiving. Talk about a holiday party on a budget!
Okay, let’s talk about this grilled cheese. I say once you add cream cheese, you never go back.
Ingredients
- Sourdough bread
- Sharp cheddar cheese
- Cream cheese
- Bacon
- Butter
- Jalapeno (optional)
It’s okay to start pouring the wine while cooking, no one is here to judge.
Steps
Remember, I am not a proper chef, so I am putting these steps as simple as possible.
- Fry bacon
- Layer bread, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, bacon, sliced jalapeno, and another slice of bread…you know, like a sandwich.
- With a new pan, melt butter. (You can use the same pan if you’re lazy like me, wipe away the bacon grease.)
- Fry the sandwich until a golden brown
- Eat immediately while it’s warm!
If you add the sliced jalapeno to the sandwich, it tastes like a jalapeno popper!
If you are ever in the mood for some comfort food, this combination will hit the spot.

This looks amazing! I totally need to try this soon! We did a brie and raspberry jam grilled cheese last year that was unexpected, but amazing!
That sounds so, so good! I am going to have to make that!
Looks so good! I’d have to do about half the cheese personally thought, I could never finish all that! Grilled cheese is the best because it can have so many variations.
It’s quite decadent! I usually can eat just half of the sandwich!
Ooo! This looks delicious! Love the video and to see your styling and photography in action! I’ll need to check out Grocery Outlet – I like your idea of being prepared and stocking up 🙂
Thank you so much for the kind words!!
seriously sounds so divine. What could be better than the combo of cheese bread and bacon? I think I’ll try this but with turkey bacon. I really like mammals and prefer her not to eat them if I can avoid it. Thanks for the great idea!
I also like eating turkey bacon, but my husband prefers pork.
This looks like perfection!
This looks so tasty and delicious! Love the fact it is very simple to make. Only problem is that I am not a big fan of sourdough bread and will choose an alternative!
Just make sure it’s a thick bread instead of white sandwich bread, or it will fall apart on you!
Omg I want this right now!!!!
Yum, yum! I love bacon grilled cheese sandwiches and yours looks fit for king. Pairing this beautiful sandwich with wine – brilliant! I can hardly wait until lunchtime. 🙂
The pictures make me hungry, too!
OMG! This looks so amazing.
