A fantastic recipe for a cheese-filled garlic bread ring, perfect for summer grilling, combines a whole artisan bread loaf, garlic butter, fresh herbs, and plenty of cheese. This dish is cooked on a grill or smoker for that smoky flavor.
Ingredients: - 1 round loaf of artisan bread (such as sourdough or Italian) - 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened - 3-4 cloves garlic, minced or garlic powder - Fresh parsley and/or basil, chopped - 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mix of mozzarella and sharp cheddar) - Optional: additional fillings such as diced ham, sautéed shrimp, or sliced jalapeños
Instructions:
- Prepare the garlic butter: Mix softened butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley (and basil if desired), and a pinch of salt.
- Cut the bread: Score the loaf in a ring pattern — cut into the loaf vertically and then horizontally, creating a grid but not cutting all the way through the bottom to form pull-apart sections.
- Add the garlic butter: Spread the garlic butter mixture liberally between the bread sections, making sure to get it deep into the cuts.
- Stuff with cheese: Stuff shredded cheese generously between the cuts. You can also add additional fillings like diced ham or sautéed shrimp for more flavor.
- Wrap and grill: Wrap the bread ring loosely in foil. Grill over medium heat or on a smoker for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is warm and lightly crispy on the edges. Alternatively, bake in an oven or air fryer, but grilling adds a smoky summer flavor.
- Serve: Serve warm as a pull-apart bread that's perfect for sharing during your summer grilling.
This recipe is inspired by combining the garlic cheese butter spread and pull-apart style bread from popular TikTok and cooking pages, with grilling for summer. Using artisanal bread and grilling it creates a perfect smoky cheese-filled garlic bread ring ideal for summer gatherings.
If you prefer a ready format and specifics from one source, use 2 buns or a loaf, butter with garlic powder spread, mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese, optional thinly diced ham or cold cuts, and cook in an air fryer or grill at 380-400°F for ~5-15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
For a more traditional approach, use the artisan loaf pull-apart method with fresh garlic and herbs.
