Recipe Tips and Variations:
Ground beef and sausage can be mixed together before forming the ground meat square to stuff. We like the separate layers, either way will be delicious.
Cheddar cheese, colby-jack or pepper jack are also great options for the cheese layer. Sliced cheese will work better than shredded.
Sautéd mushrooms would also be great in the filling and any variety of peppers that you like.
Store leftovers tightly wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator up to 4 days.
Reheat slices in a skillet over medium heat for about 3- 5 minutes on each side.
Use a grill pan if you have wide grates on your grill or smoker to make it easier to remove from the grill.
