#15 out of 48: Grilled Cheese with Dungeness Crab at Beecher's

Our love for Beecher's runs deep. We've dragged many a visitor there to sample their World's Best Mac & Cheese. We participated in a cheese tasting and wine pairing class one holiday season. Heck, I was even cheesemaker for a day there, as well. So, our expectations of the Grilled Cheese with Dungeness Crab were high. Maybe a little too high.

Served on perfectly toasted bread, the Grilled Cheese with Dungess Crab seems kind of pricey at $10, but they don't skimp on the crab in any way. The sandwich is bursting with crab in such a way that it actually overpowers Beecher's signature Flagship cheese. Add a tasty remoulade sauce to the mix and the result actually tastes more like a crab salad than a grilled cheese. It's a tasty sandwich, but a slightly better balance would make it an undeniable favorite.
