Personally I'd lean towards grilled cheese with extra stuff in it for this sandwich. I feel like to be considered a melt it'd have to be something like a tuna melt where the cheese accompanies the tuna, and not the other way around. You think the classification is a question of volume proportions between cheese and whatever else is in it?
Nah with a melt, the other stuff is more important than the cheese. In a grilled cheese, the cheese is the star. Even in your link it says the cheese accompanies whatever else in a melt.
Oh dang, good idea. I don't really like chicharron by itself, but I bet that's freaking perfect. Although I might crush up the chicharron into bits first and sprinkle it over rather than such large chunks.
Nice. Mad congrats. I'm not huge on eating bags of chicharron unaccompanied, but I definitely fully endorse their addition to a grilled cheese. It makes the best kind of sense.

Yeah something between a melt and grilled cheese. The chicharon made it extra crunchy.

There is nothing between a melt and a grilled cheese. It's one or the other. Or neither. I'm bringing this argument back.

How was it?
Before I clicked I was expecting melted cheese between two pieces of chicharon

It was so good. The whole was greater than the sum of its parts. I also dipped it in guacamole for some extra goodness

Congratulations, that is a win

Yeah I'm thinking next time I'll cut the chicharon into smaller bits, but this one was still pretty good texture wise

Wots the yellow stuff?

The sourdough I used has tumeric and butterfly pea flower in the dough, so it's naturally blueish purple and yellow

The colors are really eye catching. The sandwich looks delicious
