Grilled Turkey Melt Sandwich

I have always enjoyed a towering, packed with tasty morsels, bursting out all sides, two napkin sandwich that requires hinged jaws to consume. But, and I say this with no hesitation, this Grilled Turkey Melt Sandwich raises the bar even higher with it's avocado spread, smoked bacon and oozing mozzarella cheese cooked on the grill.

Surprisingly easy to put together and toasted to perfection on the grill with delicious hints of smoky goodness.

I used my Weber Performer Grill with a 50/50 mix of Oak lump charcoal and Kingsford briquets.

Set up for indirect grilling at 350°F

The secret to toasting the Grilled Turkey Melt Sandwich is using two sheet pans or in this case, a sheet pan and a baking pan.

No risk of burning toast this way!

Cook for about 15 – 20 minutes, until sandwich bread is toasted and the cheese has melted.
