    Fun fact... I used to work at 2 different Bennigan's. 1 of which is still open. Mt. Pleasant, Michigan. As far as I know it's the last 1 but as of April 2024, it's still open.

    CJ. I’m kind of a Montecristo connoisseur so I can’t wait to make this on my Blackstone thanks for doing it.

    Apparently Bennigans still exists, only like 11 locations in the US, one in melbourne florida. My sister was a waitress at one like 33 years ago. Used to get the monte cristo every time i went in.

    Ahhh, the reference to Bennigan's and their Monte Cristo brings back so many memories! It was my first BATTER-DIPPED, DEEP FRIED sandwich ever! You did this justice...great Job! Griddle on boys! And keep those movie/song references coming!

    I love a lot of the recipes, but the conversations, movie quotes, genuine fun and immaturity amongst friends is what makes yours and Nates show so much fun to watch! I can very much relate! There is no reason to be serious 100 percent of the time! Keep it up guys.
