We all know that everything is bigger in Texas! And the grilled cheeses and sandwiches at Texas Meltz are on the bigger side. That's the main plus.
Just looking at the menu, this is my kind of place! I love grilled cheese, and adding brisket, ham or meat patties to a grilled cheese sandwich, now you're singing my song. But sadly the song needs a bit of tuning, not a new song, not a new instrument, just a bit of tuning...and I would live here. So Will, you pragmatic fellow, what needs to be done for this place to be Awesome? Well, my curious fellow Yelper, let me tell you.
The secret is.......FAT and CHEESE!!
There is just not enough of it.
The idea is perfect, but it lacks a bit more butter in the toast and more gooey ooey cheese. The burger I got has all the look and feel of an awesome burger, but the meat patty and the brisket were overcooked and dry. Even with the Nice BBQ sauce selection, it was still dry.
But Will, you say, this is a grilled cheese specialty, it's not fair just sampling the burgers?
Don't worry, worried Yelper, I did try one of their special Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Lucky 13 on the menu, The Havana, consisting of Roast Pork, Ham, Pickles, Mustard, and Fried Onions. How can they mess that up you say? Well...... the cheese was almost non-existent, and there was not enough butter, mayo or any fat vehicle to maneuver around so much Texas toast. So again, a bit dry.
The fried okra was awesome, though.
Don't get me wrong, maybe it was an off day, maybe they will fix the issue. I truly hope so, because this place would be awesome if that happens.
Fingers crossed
