One of my favorite comfort foods is a grilled cheese sandwich (GCS). Mine are almost always made under the oven's broiler.
On those evenings where one just doesn't feel like making a more thorough meal, a grilled cheese, salad, bag of chips and a beverage can hit the spot.
More often than not, if there is some ham in the fridge it too ends up in the sandwich.
Most often the typical GCS has American Cheese, which some folks refuse to acknowledge as actually being cheese. This product of industry and marketing has found its way into many of my GCSes.
Now one of my favorite cheeses is a pepper jack. It seems every distributer of pepper jack has a different formula as to which peppers and how many they include. Shop around to find one you like if that is your desire.
Currently my mouth is undergoing extensive dental work and it may be awhile before being able to tackle a sandwich. Looking forward to the day my mouth can wrap around some of these:

This may require finding a cheese shop in Portland to try some of them.
