Summertime is a great time to dust off the raclette grill and take it OUTSIDE! This genius way of tableside cooking and entertainment leaves your home odor-free and your neighbors super jealous (unless you invite them as we did).

tbspgarlic butterI make my own by combining 2 cloves of minced garlic with 4 Tablespoons of room temperature butter and a little sea salt. I use it for grilling the meat, spreading on bread, putting in the raclette pans.

Make The Garlic Sauce
Combine all ingredients and set aside until ready to serve.
garlic cloves
handful finely chopped chives
cup sour cream
tbsp mayo
salt and pepper to taste
Cook the Meat
Add a little garlic butter to the top of your raclette grill, then add the meat. Cook until browned on the outside and the internal temperature has reached 145° Fahrenheit or 63° Celsius. I love using this Instant-Read Thermometer to give me peace of mind that the pork is cooked.

Melt the Cheese
Place a piece of camembert and lingonberry sauce in a small pan and cook until bubbly. Place over a piece of sliced baguette. Take it to the next level by grilling the baguette with a little garlic butter. SO GOOD!
