room temp butter is the best thing ever.. butter will last about 2 weeks, out, on the counter. . . more, if is a sealed container.

your options for buttering grilled cheese sandwiches are: room-temp butter, frozen bread, or both perhaps. . .

in this case, I slathered on the butter, topping each 'outside' piece with chipotle and cayenne.

I threw down one of the bread pieces, with cheddar bits and three(3) american slices... then threw the top bread piece on..

during the course of 3-5 minutes, you'll turn down the heat and prepare to plate. . . 

then, when you're efforts are at true fruition, you will bask in your grilled cheese glory, and your spirit will be enchanted to new dimensions of food and love... and.. damn that was a good sandwich :P
