    How to make grilled cheese on the griddle 

    1. Cook the bacon on a griddle set to medium or medium-high heat, brushed with a thin layer of oil. Flip regularly until browned and crisp. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning. Once done, transfer bacon to a paper towel to drain excess grease. Use a scraper to push any remaining bacon bits to the side, you will griddle the grilled cheeses in the bacon grease.
