  • Toast the garlic bread until it is golden brown and crispy. This will help it hold up to the other ingredients.

  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not burnt. Burnt bacon will add a bitter flavor to the melt.
  • Use a good quality cheese that melts well. Sharp cheddar is a classic choice, but you can also use other cheeses, such as Monterey Jack, Gruyère, or Swiss.
