Made these with texas toast and used bacon pieces instead of slices. We did not care for the batter so much. It made it taste more "french toast-y". Will try again w/o batter and maybe mozz cheese instead of provolone.

I didn't know what "rustic white bread" was so I just bought an unsliced loaf of Italian bread from the bakery at my grocer. I cut it a bit thicker than a piece of white loaf bread, but thinner than Texas toast. I used thick sliced pepper bacon but both my husband and I agree thinner, extra crispy bacon would likely work better, even though it was still delicious. I nearly just buttered the bread instead of making the beer batter, but I will tell you this - DO NOT DO THAT! The batter is AMAZING on this grilled cheese! Easy to make, too! I'll be making this again!

This is a good easy recipe; even though the calorie count is high. Use it as a "cheat treat". I used Texas Toast; and put 2 slices of provolone and 4-5 pieces of bacon. Ate it with Texas crisper fries and a pasta salad. Thx for the easy dinner recipe!!
