Scallops & Grilled Cheese (With Double Smoked Ham)


Well—They had Scallops on sale again, so I couldn’t resist @ $10.95, instead of $17.95.

So I made them my favorite way—In a Pan with a lot of Butter. I like them nice & Buttery!!
Put some Olive Oil on & some Old Bay for a few hours first. Then fry them in that Butter!!

I had a little sliced Double Smoked Ham left in one of my freezer bags, so I threw the last slices in a Pan to heat them up, and on the side, put the Scallops in a bowl with some of the Bubbling Hot Pan Butter.
This was Heaven for this Old Bear!!

Then the next day I made two Grilled Cheese, and took All of the Ham Crumbs out of the bottom of the Bag, and threw them in between the cheese slices in my Grilled Cheese Sammies. Boy were those Tasty!!

That’s about it for the Scallops & that pack of Leftover Double Smoked Ham!! Gotta look—I think I might have one more Vac Pack of Leftover Ham in my Freezer Yet.

Thanks for the Visit,

Bear

This shows what kind of Scallops I got here for $10.95:

I suddenly had a hankering for grilled cheese and tomato soup as well. But sammies and scallops? Oh wow. Point!
 
Man that looks awesome!! Scallops are my wife’s favorite food. We like them the same way, cooked in butter with some Old Bay. Every now and then I do bacon wrapped scallop kabobs for her too.
 
Great score on those scallops Bear! Beautiful job on two nights worth of dinner too, everything looks cooked to perfection. Like. RAY

Not a combo that I would have thought of, but you sure do make it look good Bear.

These are three of my favorite things...and then I don't feel so bad.

Point for sure

I love scallops & yours look delicious!
I don't eat them often because of the price, but sometimes I want them so bad I just suck it up & pay for them. Sam's has them sometimes, but even there they are expensive!
Good looking meal!

Thank You Steve!!
This was one of those deals where the Scallops needed something else on a plate, and I had a little Double Smoked Ham I had to get rid of, and an already Hot Buttered Pan.
And Thanks for the Like.

Thank You Jcam!!
Yup I love the scallops wrapped in Bacon at weddings & other parties. (I could tell you stories)
However when I make them at home I like to drown them in bubbly hot butter.
Then have the Bacon or Ham along side. I know it's weird, but the Bacon doesn't need any butter. LOL

Looks great . I love a grilled cheese with any meat on it . Scallops are great too , but I don't buy them . Pretty pricey here .
Nice work .
