Flatrock Monte Cristo Sandwich
By Traeger Kitchen
A Monte Cristo sandwich starts life as a simple ham, turkey, and cheese sandwich. Then it gets dipped in a batter of eggs and milk, fried in butter, and dusted with powdered sugar for a French-toast-meets-grilled-cheese explosion of flavor. The combo of sweet, salty, and savory flavors is hard to beat, and the Flatrock griddles it to golden brown perfection.

Steps
Step 1
In a wide, shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Ingredients
4 large eggs
1/2 Cup
1 Teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 Teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Step 2
Spread the mayonnaise over 4 slices of the bread and the mustard over the other 4 slices. Place 1 slice of cheese over each mustard slice, then divide the ham and turkey among the mustard slices. Top with the remaining cheese, then place mayonnaise slice on top to create 4 sandwiches.
Ingredients
8 Slices white bread
4 Tablespoon mayonnaise
4 Tablespoon yellow mustard
8 Slices Swiss cheese
8 Slices deli ham
8 Slices deli turkey
Step 3
Preheat 2 adjacent zones of the flat top on medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 4
Add the butter to the hot cooktop and use a spatula to coat the entire hot area. One at a time, dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, flip to coat both sides, then place on the hot cooktop. Cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown and the cheese has melted, another 2 to 3 minutes.
Ingredients
4 Tablespoon unsalted butter
Step 5
Transfer the sandwiches to serving plates, dust with powdered sugar, and serve. Enjoy!

Braised Chicken Tacos with Cracklins
Inspired by birria tacos, these braised chicken tacos get dipped in a spicy enchilada sauce before a turn on the griddle. Crisped chicken skin (aka cracklins) adds welcome crunch to the filling. Serve these up with some rice, beans, and Mexican beer for the full cantina experience at home.
