Although many cheeses can be warmed on the grill, grilling cheeses have a high melting point, so they hold their shape without oozing away through the grates. One grilling cheese is Halloumi, usually made with goat’s or sheep’s milk. Another is bread cheese, a semi-soft Finnish cheese made with cow’s milk in the U.S. They develop a crispy outer coating or caramelized brown crust on the outside while the inside gets melty. Ask a Hy-Vee cheese expert to help you identify the right cheeses for you.
