- Set up the grill for direct heat and preheat to high.

- Gas grill: preheat to superhot.
- ).
- Skewer a cube of mozzarella.
- Roast over the fire, turning the skewer to evenly melt the cheese.
- (If you are using a gas grill, you'll need to bring it as close as possible to the fire without touching the grate.
- ).
- When the mozzarella begins to melt and brown, after 1-2 min on charcoal (little longer for gas), use a knife or a fork to scrape the cheese off the skewer onto a piece of grilled bread.
- NEVER ATTEMPT TO EAT DIRECTLY OFF THE SKEWER!
- YOU WILL BURN YOURSELF!
- Top the cheese with a basil leaf and a piece of sun-dried tomato, and a second piece of grilled bread.
