You know Harrison Ford as Han Solo, Indiana Jones, or Jack Ryan—but did you know he’s also a grilled cheese enthusiast with a chef-worthy secret? In a rare 2022 interview with People magazine, Ford revealed his go-to comfort food isn’t space rations or archaeologist trail mix—it’s a simple grilled cheese sandwich… with a twist that turns the classic into something rich, complex, and deeply satisfying.
His secret? A thin smear of grainy mustard on the bread before buttering—a small touch that adds tang, depth, and a whisper of sophistication without overpowering the cheese.
Here’s how to make Harrison Ford’s Perfect Grilled Cheese—crispy outside, molten inside, and just a little rebellious.
Why This Grilled Cheese Stands Out
- 🧀 Melty, high-quality cheese (Ford prefers sharp cheddar or Gruyère)
- 🥪 Grainy mustard—adds brightness and cuts the richness
- 🧈 Butter on the outside of the bread—for ultimate golden crunch
- ⏱️ Ready in 10 minutes—faster than the Kessel Run!
- 💛 Comfort food with character—just like Han Solo
