Croque with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham on the BBQ

Croque monsieurs

The classic and well-known croque is the croque monsieur, originating from French cuisine. A croque monsieur consists of two slices of bread, cheese and ham. Of course, there are countless alternatives to this classic. What about a croque with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham for example? With this Barbecook recipe you lift the basic croque monsieur to a higher level. This way you will undoubtedly impress your guests. And thanks to our Kamal kamado barbecue and the Barbecook elastic grill, you will no longer need a croque monsieur machine from now on!

Preparation of a croque with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham on the BBQ

For the preparation of the croque with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham, we use the Barbecook ceramic barbecue Kamal. Fill the stainless steel charcoal basket for about ½ with charcoal and light it with three fire starters. The ceramic body around the basket (firepot) holds the heat perfectly and ensures that the flame is lit quickly.

Spread a slice of toast bread with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham and then place a slice of bread on top. Repeat until your elastic grill is filled.

Place the croques in the elastic grill, then place it on the hot charcoal BBQ and let's grill for a few minutes. Turn the elastic grill regularly for the perfect croques. After about five minutes, the croques are ready. Cut them diagonally and serve with a sauce of your choice. Bet you've never eaten such a tasty alternative to the croque monsieur before. Enjoy!

If desired, serve these croques with a salad and cherry tomatoes. Finish with walnuts and balsamic cream. Success guaranteed!

At Barbecook, we always want to make things as easy as possible for ourselves. That's why we choose Barbecook’s elastic grill for making the croque with goat cheese, honey and Italian ham. This way, you can grill and turn about 4 croques at the same time. Moreover, the elastic grill ensures that the croques won’t stick to the barbecue grid during grilling. Of course, the elastic grill is also perfectly usable for other dishes. Thanks to the built-in springs, the grid adjusts perfectly every time, keeping everything firmly in place. A must-have accessory for preparing croques and other barbecue dishes!
