The Appleton Smoky Grilled Cheese

A bit sweet, a bit smoky

The components of this grilled cheese are unapologetically simple—smoked Gouda, Gruyère, and apple butter—yet the flavor profile is balanced and sophisticated. There’s smoke and sweetness, savory and umami. It almost seems too straightforward to be as delicious as it is, but the results speak for themselves: the Appleton Smoky is greater than the sum of its parts, a sandwich that is both bold and nuanced.
