Goey Crispy Grilled Cheeser Sandwiches

I like to add a clove of garlic to the butter (actually I use olive oil) and use very old Canadian cheese for more bite then fry for a long time (20 minutes) at lower temperature for a super incredible crispy crust. Sometimes will add a slice of ham and chopped scallions (green onions). Serve it sliced on the diagonal with some ketchup for dipping. The crusty garlic on the outside really turns grilled cheese into something special.
