Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by heating a large non-stick skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter on one side of each sourdough bread slice.
  3. Place one slice of buttered bread, butter-side down, into the skillet.
  4. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on the unbuttered side; add roast beef and top with two slices of cheddar cheese.
  5. Place another slice of buttered bread on top, butter-side up, and press down gently.
  6. Grill the sandwich for about 3-5 minutes until the bread is golden brown.
  7. Flip the sandwich and cook the other side for another 3-5 minutes until crispy.
  8. Check if the cheese is melted and the sandwich is golden, then remove from the skillet to cool slightly.
  9. Cut the sandwich into halves or quarters for serving and enjoy.
