Yummy! I make it in the toaster oven when not already grilling. My own piece has about 3 cloves on it so it is really a cheesy, garlic delight.
This is my favorite garlic bread recipe. I make it every week. It’s easy to make and the flavor is excellent. Thanks Neelys!
I’ve made this twice since watching the show and it’s a great recipe. Using the shredded mozzarella cheese is a must. The second time I also added some crumbled bleu cheese and it was a really good flavor. I highly recommend this!

Tried this recipe the same day of the show. I did everything like they did on the show. When I printed the recipe it called for mozzarella cheese which was not used on the show. Next time I will try it with the cheese. How can you go wrong with garlice bread? Both ways seem great to this family.
