NEVER Butter Your Patty Melt Bread Again — Try This Old DINER Trick

Black edges, cold cheese, soggy rye? Your patty melt was never the problem. The butter was. I've made patty melts on my father's griddle for forty years, and I've seen every way this sandwich goes wrong. In this one I walk you through eight old diner fixes, from the bread you should never buy fresh to the reason your patty has no business cooking inside the sandwich. And at the end, I show you what goes on that bread at my griddle instead of butter, and why it browns the same from corner to corner every time. Try the side-by-side test at the end and tell me which slice won. #pattymelt #dinerfood #cookingtips #comfortfood #oldschoolcooking
