- Hey y'all, it's Jamie Deen, I'm here at mama's house
0:02
and I'm cooking up something today that is unusual.
0:07
It's a grilled cheese with goat cheese and mozzarella
0:10
and basil and pepper jelly, sounds delich.
0:16
If you don't like goat cheese,
0:17
you notice mom's nowhere around here,
0:18
she doesn't like goat cheese,
0:19
you can use any kind of cheese that you want,
0:21
but the goat lends itself really well
0:24
with the snap of the pepper.
0:25
So let's get started.
0:27
Now, have y'all seen us do mayonnaise chicken before?
0:31
You know, mayonnaise chicken, you can coat the outside
0:33
of your chicken breast with mayonnaise.
0:34
You could do a whole chicken covered with mayonnaise
0:36
and put it on your smoker.
0:38
Mayonnaise is a great browning agent,
0:40
it also adds some good fat.
0:41
So I'm gonna mayonnaise on the outside of this bread.
0:46
I've got my pan heating up,
0:48
should be nice and hot.
0:50
So I'm gonna, instead of going with butter,
0:54
mayonnaise is gonna be our browning agent
0:56
on the outside of this.
0:56
I'm using a thick sliced white bread.
1:00
Get those two pieces right there
1:01
and I'm gonna build it right in the pans.
1:05
Take my goat cheese, spread it evenly here.
1:10
This is one of those things
1:11
that just adds some different flavors
1:12
that you might not think about.
1:16
You could cut these into smaller pieces,
1:17
you could share 'em, you could tailgate with 'em.
1:20
Just a really interesting different kind of sandwich to eat.
1:23
Got our goat cheese down.
1:26
I'm gonna put some mozzarella here.
1:34
I get it covered up with our mozzarella cheese.
1:38
I think I'm gonna go with some basil leaves next,
1:42
I'm gonna put four pieces right there.
1:44
And then lastly, for our jelly,
1:47
I'm gonna try to spread it on this side.
1:51
This is gonna be a really big, bold flavor in here.
1:55
It's gonna help bring it all together.
1:58
Man, that looks delicious.
2:01
Let's check to see how our browning's going.
2:03
I'm gonna let this cook for just a couple of more minutes.
2:06
Why don't we take a real quick break
2:08
and then we'll put this together
2:09
and taste it when you get back?
2:11
It's a crazy grilled sandwich day today, y'all,
2:15
Okay, y'all, I think I've given it enough time to brown up.
2:19
This is a trick that I use at the house.
2:23
Look how pretty that is.
2:27
It's a trick I use at the house.
2:28
If I'm doing grilled cheese for the boys
2:30
and I don't have the time or the patience
2:33
to wait through this part of it,
2:37
I'll brown the outsides
2:38
and then I'll stick it in the oven for 'em
2:40
and make sure that everything gets nice and toasty
2:43
and melty on the inside.
2:45
But I think we're gonna let this go
2:47
for just one more second, then we're gonna get to taste it.
2:50
You know, I hadn't had a chance to see y'all
2:52
since we've retired our restaurant.
2:54
And I want you to know that we're all happy and healthy
2:57
and so blessed to have been able to serve for 36 years.
3:00
I do miss my friends and our customers so much.
3:03
That's the biggest adjustment for me,
3:05
is not being with some of my favorite people
3:08
and serving some of my favorite people.
3:10
But 36 years is a long time, y'all.
3:12
And we all love each other and just, we've come out of it.
3:15
It's a hard, hard, hard thing.
3:17
And what a celebration of the thousands of people
3:20
that we work with and the millions of people
3:22
that we've served that we're so blessed
3:24
and we still love each other and we're still cooking.
3:27
And now I'll be here filming at mom's house going forward.
3:31
It's all good, the Lord has not missed a day blessing us.
3:37
This sandwich looks fantastic.
3:42
Did y'all not know the mayonnaise on the outside trick?
3:44
Look how beautiful that brown up.
3:46
Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty.
3:50
Now, I am gonna be very careful how I cut the sandwich,
3:58
'cause I want it to stay pretty.
4:11
I have chosen the worst knife in the whole kitchen, y'all,
4:15
the absolute worst knife in the whole kitchen.
4:18
My mouth is watering, gotta get myself together.
4:25
I wish y'all were here
4:25
so we could cheers our sandwiches together.
4:27
Let's take it for a test drive, mm.
4:33
Great day, mm, lemme tell you, mm, mm-hmm.
4:42
That is delicious, delicious, mm.
4:47
That white bread is so good and it's crunchy.
4:49
And then the pepper comes in on the backside,
4:51
smooths everything out.
4:53
With the basil, I ain't kidding you.
4:56
I've cooked a lot of things on this TV
4:58
and I want y'all to know that you can trust me.
5:00
Trust me when I tell you this, that's a great sandwich.
5:06
We'll see y'all around the kitchen, mm.
5:12
