Made up of King’s Hawaiian Rolls and ham n’ cheese, these sandwiches are pretty much one of the basic food groups at every tailgating event. Gooey and savory, these babies will make even the manliest football fan weep tears of happiness. Even though they’re called Hawaiian, don’t expect any hula girls to be pigging out on these southern classics.

5. Add your layer of cheese, making one half swiss and the other mozzarella.

TIP: so we obviously had a few burnt a few as you can see (we were busy watching the new season of Dexter on Netflix–sue us!) we suggest you watch the sandwiches more carefully while they bake and take them out when they are a nice golden color.
