• 3 top with second bread slice, butter side up. fold foil around bread and seal tightly.
• 4 place foil package directly on hot grill. with lid closed, sear for 2 minutes each side. turn burner under bread to low, leaving other burners at medium-high. with lid closed, grill 2-3 minutes more per side until the bread is toasted and cheese is melting. let stand 5 minutes before opening package. serve immediately.
• 5 tips: for a richer more gooey sandwich, replace double cream brie with triple cream brie cheese.
• 6 substitute 1 cup buffalo mozzarella and 1 cup gruyere for the 2 cups brie cheese. be sure to pat dry the mozzarella before and after slicing.
