A Colorado Collaboration with Jelly Madness
I am a huge fan of Jelly Madness and one of my very favorite products is their Blackberry Chipotle Jam. It has a hint of smoky goodness from the chipotle peppers along with a well balanced sweetness from the blackberries. It is the perfect jam to add to this melt sandwich because it perfectly pairs with turkey and brie. This limited edition jam is typically available in the summer months as Colorado Blackberries ripen. Jelly Madness utilizes local produce whenever possible – just one more reason to love them! If you see some at your local market or boutique grocery store, make sure you stock up.

Equipment
Method
- Butter 1 side of each sourdough slice and place two slices, butter side down, on a griddle pan, (warmed to medium heat) and spread the tops of the bread with Blackberry Chipotle Jam.
- Add the remaining ingredients and layer in this order: cheese, turkey, cheese. Top with remaining two slices of bread, butter side up.
- Grill the sandwich over medium heat until both sides of the sandwich are golden and the cheese is melted.
- Remove sandwiches from heat and allow to rest on a wire rack for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to setup a bit before cutting sandwich in half.
- Serve with a salad or a side of chips. Enjoy!
