Cannabis Grilled Cheese

Ingredients

• 4 slices 4 slices White or sourdough bread (thick-cut)
• 40 g 1.4 oz Cannabutter (about 3 tbsp)
• 120 g 4.2 oz American cheese or sharp cheddar (sliced)
• 60 g 2.1 oz Gruyère or Monterey Jack (shredded, optional)
• 1 pinch 1 pinch Garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

1. 1
   Heat a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-low heat — 300–325°F (150–165°C). Low and slow is the key.
2. 2
   Spread cannabutter generously on one side of each bread slice. Mix in garlic powder if using.
3. 3
   Place two slices butter-side-down in the pan. Layer cheese evenly over each slice.
4. 4
   Top with remaining bread slices, butter-side-up. Cook 3–4 minutes until the bottom is deep golden brown.
5. 5
   Carefully flip each sandwich. Press gently with a spatula. Cook another 3–4 minutes until the second side is golden and cheese fully melted.
6. 6
   Rest 1 minute before cutting diagonally. Serve immediately.

Pro Tips

• Each sandwich contains half the total cannabutter dose — start with half a sandwich if you are a beginner.
• Medium-low heat is non-negotiable — high heat burns the bread before the cheese melts and degrades THC.
• Cannabutter smoke point is lower than regular butter: keep the pan below 320°F (160°C).
