How to make a Chopped Cheese on the Griddle - Harlem Style

  • After doing a ton of research I will show you How to make a chopped cheese on the griddle. This might be my new favorite sandwich to make on my Camp Chef flat top grill! Although it’s made with ground beef hamburger patties, it doesn’t taste like a burger…. And it’s way different than a Philly cheesesteak.
    I made this chopped cheese sandwich as close to the original Harlem chopped cheese as I could. I started by toasting the hero (that’s a sub roll to us) on the griddle. Then, I put the hamburger patties down on the flat top and let them cook on the first side.
    While the beef patties cooked on the first side, I sautéed some chopped onion on the griddle. Then, once the hamburger patties had developed a little bit of a crust, I flipped them over and started chopping the meat.
    Add the sautéed onions to the chopped beef and stir it up to combine. Then, shape the chopped beef and cheese until it matches the shape of your sub roll, and top it with sliced American cheese.
    While the cheese is melting in to the beef, prep your toasted sub roll by spreading on some mayo and ketchup. Then, pile on the beef and top with shredded lettuce and sliced tomato.
    Wrap the sandwich up in aluminum foil and allow it to rest for a few minutes. This allows all of that good beef grease to be absorbed in to the hero. Delicious!
    For my first time making this chopped cheese sandwich on the griddle, I kept the toppings pretty traditional… but you can also add your favorite burger toppings.
    Hope you enjoy making this easy sandwich with ground beef on your Blackstone or Camp Chef griddle!

    Made this tonight. Very first bite my wife says "You're making this again." I don't know if it was a statement or a command, but it definitely was NOT a question. This sandwich is absolutely Fantastic! I changed up a couple things based on user comments: (1) I added the Adobo seasoning in the last 2 minutes of cooking (LOVE that stuff!) and (2) I made a spicy mayo (Dukes, lime juice, hot sauce, cayenne pepper, taco seasoning). Honestly, I was half way through the sandwich and I wish I would have made 2 just for myself. THANK YOU!

    The point of the foil is to roll it so it “forms” the sandwich and help it steam together so when you bite it doesn’t fall out. Also lots will use adobo and/or chicken bouillon for seasoning. Excellent job!

    They do use seasoning but I think it might be harder to find in Tennessee then it would in the NYC area it’s one of 2 seasonings Adobo or Sazón, both are made by a company called Goya it’s a Latin seasoning, but it will give it a different taste than salt and pepper does.

    Awesome video and great sandwich for sure!
    The only thing you needed to do was to wrap that baby up tight to let it conform to its shape.
    Then the flavors and sandwich comes together with less spilling!
    But still you made that thing look great!
    I made one of these 2 weeks ago and Im still dreaming of the melting flavors!

    Most common seasoning is Sazon (a Goya product).
    Do yourself a favor and get a meat-grinder attachment for a standmixer. Grinding your own beef is a game-changer for burgers and the ultimate epicness that is the CHOPPED CHEESE.

    You did a great job. I do agree you over filled it some. A burger ORa scandwich shouldn't be filled so much that it's really difficult to eat. But messy is alright. So I know you did this about a year ago. Go to the Munchies channel and watch the recent episode " chopped cheese " and checkout how he does his. He only says of his seasonings it's a secret. That might be why you were having trouble finding what everyone uses. No one wants to say. Anyway have a great day 🌤.

      Honestly just after watching the History of the Chopped Cheese...the stores would have pre portioned patties. So when the idea was created to hurry up the story goes they just throw the patties right on the griddle and start to chop...creating the actual name..If you liked this I just recently recreated it...its the Chopped Cheese meets the Cheesesteak
