Hot Boss

There’s nothing quite like a golden, gooey ham and cheese toastie to hit the spot — but at Hot Boss, we don’t do basic. We’re turning up the heat and the flavour with a bold splash of Hot Boss Original Sauce, giving your classic grilled cheese a smoky, spicy kick that takes it from snack to next-level snack attack.

Perfect
for lazy lunches, late-night cravings, or bossing up your brunch, this
toastie is crispy on the outside, melty on the inside, and packed with
flavour in every bite. Warning: you may never go back to plain cheese
again.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 slices of bread (sourdough, white, or whatever you’ve got)
  • 1 tbsp butter (softened)
  • 1–2 tsp Hot Boss Original Sauce (or Hot, if you’re feeling spicy)
  • 2–3 slices of cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix — up to you!)
  • Optional: sliced tomato, red onion, or cooked bacon

METHOD:

  1. Butter the bread:
  2. Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
  3. These will be the outside for crispiness.
  4. Build the toastie:
  5. Flip the slices over. On the inside, spread athin layer of Hot Boss Sauce. Layer on your cheese and the ham. Sandwich it up, buttered sides facing out.
  6. Toast it up:
  7. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the sandwich for 2–3 minutes on each side, pressing gently, until golden brown and the cheese is oozy.
  8. Serve like a boss:
  9. Slice, dip in more Hot Boss, and enjoy the cheesy, spicy goodness.
  10. Hot Boss Tips:
  11. Add a drizzle of honey for a sweet-heat combo
  12. Try it with jalapeños or pickles for extra punch
  13. Make a double… trust us, one’s never enough.
