Even though the temperature is hovering around the 80s and Birkenstocks are still everyone’s shoe of choice, I can safely say that autumn is now upon us. While I’m a huge proponent of pumpkin spice everything and soup for every meal, my favorite fall snack is a crisp apple with, if I’m feeling a little extra festive, a sprinkle of cinnamon. The other day I wondered what would happen if I paired this with the timeless grilled cheese sandwich and not to brag, but this may be the Best Peirce Hack Yet.

the master himself
Put down that mac and cheese sandwich and brace yourself, Kenyon. You’re about discover the National Treasure of Peirce meals and it isn’t going to cost you a 30 minute wait. This “Made in Peirce” artisanal grilled cheese is the brainchild of George Costanzo ’19 and it’s going to change your life. (Seriously though, during this interview at least 2 people were inspired to make their own grilled cheese.) Audrey Neubauer ’19 joined us on the journey and offered a quote about the impact that this sandwich has had on her life.
The first time I tried George’s grilled cheese, I didn’t know what I was in for. One bite…my whole life turned upside down. Since then, I’ve been learning how to make [the grilled cheese] and refining my knowledge. Each day my life gets better, each day gets better.

Made in Peirce: Caramelized Onions
I made this, and you can too!
If my previous installments of Made in Peirce haven’t clued you in enough, I love using the Peirce panini press to do things for which it was certainly not made. Next in my series of irresponsible panini press usage, I make my favorite form of onions: caramelized. The bin of raw chopped onion in the topping station between Vegetarian and International has been calling to me the last couple times it’s been out, so I figured I’d finally go for it. Needless to say, I’m so glad that I did.
