Master the Croque Monsieur with soft sourdough, gruyère, and velvety béchamel sauce. We've put a delicious twist on it by using pulled beef. This sandwich is the king of grilled cheeses, and you'll relish every mouthful of this brunch/lunch classic.

The best bit - if you're using pre-cooked pulled beef, you're able to get it on the table in 15 minutes!
