Grilled Cheese Grill w/ Brett Burmeister (Portland, OR)

NE 11th and Alberta

What do you get when you take an old school bus, an airstream, and piles of queso? The Grilled Cheese Grill. Occupying a whole lot in Northeast Portland, this cart dishes out one of the most classic of all American comfort foods: The Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

But it’s not just Wonder bread and American cheese… quite the opposite in fact! This cart takes an artisan spin on the classics, dishing out options like Jalepeno Popper sandwiches and the Cheesus, a burger happily stacked between two grilled cheese sandwiches.

In the episode, I was joined by Brett Burmeister of Food Carts Portland, who explained why Portland has such a robust street food scene.

    I really liked this episode big time, Brett and Dan where right on the money with their take on the role of grill cheese in americana!

    Why don’t we have grill cheese carts in the NYC area? Just as Brett said, we can order it in a diner, but anywhere else they look at you twice. Maybe if the Grill Cheese Grill franchises we’ll get a bite.

    I’m going to Portland.
