   Butter one side of each bread slice. Place one slice (butter side down) in a pan over medium heat. Add a layer of cheese, some of the cooked beef, a few pieces of bacon, another layer of cheese, and top with another bread slice (butter side up).

   Cook until the bottom bread is golden brown, about 2–3 minutes. Carefully flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted. Press lightly with a spatula for that perfect melt.
