<\/source><\/picture><\/figure>\nWhat is a patty melt?<\/h2>\n
Patty melts are a cross between a hamburger and a grilled cheese sandwich. They\u2019re made by layering bread with a cooked ground beef hamburger patty, caramelized onions and cheese. <\/p>\n
The sandwich is cooked up on a griddle like a grilled cheese sandwich, creating a crispy, buttery crust with a cheesy beefy center. <\/p>\n
