How to Make Griddle Pinwheel Sandwiches
Prepare your fillings: Lay out your tortillas and spread a thin, even layer of cream cheese, ranch dressing, or your favorite flavored spread. You can also skip the spread and add a dipping sauce while serving.
Add meats and cheese: Layer your deli meats and cheese slices evenly over the tortilla. Avoid overfilling so they roll easily.
Roll and slice: Tightly roll up the tortilla and slice into 1-inch thick pinwheels using a sharp knife. Secure each slice with a toothpick if needed.
Heat your Blackstone Griddle: Preheat your griddle to medium-low heat (around 350°F). Lightly oil the surface with oil, butter, or cooking spray.
Griddle the pinwheel sandwiches: Place the pinwheels cut side down and cook for about 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula until golden and the cheese starts melting out.
Serve warm with dipping sauce: Transfer your toasted pinwheels to a serving platter and enjoy them while they’re hot and melty. Add an assortment of dipping sauces.
CHEF SHERRY’S TIP: These griddle pinwheel sandwiches are not only simple to make but also perfect for making ahead of time. Just assemble the rolls, store them in the fridge, and griddle them up right before serving!
