I like the crimped edges of the grilled cheese

That has its own benefits, for sure. I have been known to use a press or even a toaster oven as well.

However, grilled cheese for me is similar to cooking an egg. It’s the purest form of cooking and it’s an art form that is easy to screw up.

The butter to bread ratio needs to be perfect and the bread needs a perfect toast in a pan. In rare cases I’ll use some good cheeses, but American cheese is the only one that truly works. Butter the pan, not the bread. Keep the sammich moving at all times while it cooks. Timing is paramount for the toast.

If that makes the grilled cheese any better, I really don’t know. There is, in measurable quantities, more love added to it, so by default, it’s better.
