BBQ Cheese Skewers

This 'Grill-Cheese' Will Become Tender, but Won't Melt on the Barbecue

When placed on a hot barbecue, most cheeses are quick to turn into a delicious, albeit melted mess—but these barbecue cheese skewers provide a solution to this common problem.

The 'Grill-Cheese' skewer from Züger Frischkäse is described as having a "special consistency means that it does not melt," but will become tender and soft when cooked on a flaming charcoal grill. For variety, Züger's barbecue cheese products come in a range of different types, including barbecue, provençal, antipasti and curry flavors.

As it stands, cheese is most often added to a grill simply as a topping or an accompaniment to other food items. This inventive product completely reinvents cheese as an item that can stand alone on a backyard barbecue.
