Good if done properly, but otherwise pretty shitty. It's one of those things where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Patty can't be too thick and needs great caramelization, onions have to be tender, and on rye bread that's been toasted on both sides. I'm flexible on which type of cheese. So often when you get them it's soggy bread, a fat, undercooked patty and stringy or undercooked onions.

I don't think there's really anything different other than a pattymelt will use bread instead of hamburger buns. If anything I think the sandwich itself is grilled, like a grilled cheese, rather than only the patty. It gets more grease in the bread which can be more savory

if you want something like burgers at home, i think patty melts are the better route

it's kind of like making a pan pizza at home. it's better suited to home ovens.

patty melts are impossible to fuck up and god damn they're good

No, a patty melt is very specific thing, it doesn't have endless variations like a burger: grilled rye bread, caramelized onions, cheese, and a hamburger patty. There's some variance in cheeses, but it needs those things to be a patty melt.

thanks for the clarification. Either way, I enjoy a good patty melt

I live on the east coast and I feel like it's really hard to find them here, whereas in the southwest/west coast they're much more common on menus.

Every rime Ive ordered one or made one at home it was on rye. The rye is essential

rye is best, but you can definitely use white bread and it still qualify
no need to gatekeep patty melts, lmao

it's literally just a grilled cheese with a patty. from there you can put whatever the fuck you want on it. I've never seen them with buns so the only thing you really need is to have sliced bread facing outside. hamburger buns turned inside out would work fine for a patty melt since they'd crisp up nice

If a diner can't do a good patty melt then it's not really a diner.

rye is mandatory and i love em... they can be quite messy as well as cause multiple heart attacks but i'd say it's worth it
