Project By
Connected as Grilled Cheesus (154 friends)
Meg and Rob grew up around the corner from one another and have been best buds since Kindergarten. They both love cheese.
Got mine last night! Made dinner for myself, husband and son in less than ten minutes.
It worked great and brought much joy and laughter to our dinner.

It arrived! Can't wait to bust that bad boy out and stuff myself with Melted Cheesus sandwiches! Off to the store for some kraft slices!
Congrats they look great... A lot of people will be enjoying the new and improved body of Christ experience this summer.
Saw this and though of you guys! Happy Grilled Cheese Day.

Everyone, thanks for all the kind words. We're beyond thrilled to get started! We can't wait to hear back from all of you when you get your Grilled Cheesus and start making sandwiches!
Craig ... thanks for the comments!
We definitely have plans for a blog to keep the GC audience up-to-date on all things Cheesus. We've really enjoyed the Kickstarter forum and how it lets us stay engaged with our backers. Honestly, it's really fun for us. And if we're lucky enough to have an audience who enjoys communicating with us and each other, we'll definitely foster that as much as possible.
I love the idea of having a community-supported recipe book. Our original digital recipe book will be an exclusive reward for our Kickstarter backers, but i have a feeling we'll have plenty more to offer in recipe suggestions (and future prodcuts!).
We are currently in the process of removing the KS redirect from GrilledCheeus.com ... a few things have to happen before we have a fully functional e-commerce site. We're working hard to make it happen as quickly as possible.
I love comments like yours, Craig. If we're fortunate enough to have an audience of interested people like you, I think we'll have a lot of fun building this business. Building a brand is something we take very seriously, and we want to make sure it's congruent with who we are and what we stand for .... and i think communication and transparency are vital in that process.
So thanks for the words and your support. It means so much to us.
Rob.
CONGRATULATIONS MEG & ROB !!!
Happy Holidays, and I wish you continued success !!!
Any thoughts on eventually having a forum/blog/vlog/etc. to allow the GC community to submit new recipes for the press"..whether something folks can browse/search and/or something that semi-frequently gets compiled into a downloadable PDF like the original digital recipe "book" that is being offered. This could even be something that is folded back into an ever growing version of the digital recipe book so that everything is available as a single downloadable eBook/PDF (given the popularity of eReaders these days).
Anyway, just some thoughts. I am sure that I or others would be happy to help moderate or compile such recipe entries on your grilledcheesus.com site (which obviously still points to Kickstarter currently).
Congratulations!
Congrats, Meg and Rob! So happy I got to be part of your dream.
And......FUNDED! Congrats, Meg and Rob!
Exciting. I can't wait to get grillin some bacon and cheese sandwiches!!
Congratulations, Meg and Rob.
Congrats!

brad and sal ... we'll make sure you get all the cheesus' you're pledging for .... no worries!
50 Bucks to go!!!!
Congrats Congrats Congrats!!! Looks like it's gonna happen! I've changed mine also from 1 to 6 units. So I've upped it to $210. Hopefully that works. $220 left to go!
I plan to keep my streak alive of having every project I've backed, hit their goal. But, of the 6, this... is the one I'm most excited about!
400 Bucks to Go!!!
Looks like this is going through! :)
$24,351.... they are almost there!!! Come on people. Post on your FB pages, TWEET... every dollar helps me get my grilled cheesus.
Rob, Meg, I just did the same. I changed my pledge from $35 to $105. But I want 3 units. Please make a note of it someplace. And if you are shipping from Brooklyn I can pick them up since I work in Brooklyn.

If I can't get 3 units then let me know and I'll change my bid back to $35
Thanks, Sal
Casey, I think you need to pledge $35 and then add $70 at top and email Meg & Rob and tell them you want 3 units.
Sal
If I want to get one for myself and two as gifts, can I pledge three different times and make that happen?
THANKS SAL! THANKS SOOZ!
Rob, Meg... i posted your last update on FB and people thought you had reached your goal (of 20k). Post again, with urgency? best, Sooz
Rob, Meg, my wife just retweeted my tweet and one of twilight blogs picked it up. So hopefully that brings an inrush of people here over the next 30 hours!!!
sal!! thanks so much. already seeing some RTs from your twitter love! we're so close! almost there! thanks for all the support, we appreciate it so much.
I tweeted twice this morning and I posted a link on the Polk Audio forums: http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php…

Only $4500 to go!!!!
Crossing my fingers that this gets funded!!
Keep the momentum going! Get back to your facebook pages and email address
books and spread the word.... let's get this project off the ground!
I'm a Backer!! :)
Congratulations, guys!! Looks like you have a big momentum swell!!! Exciting.
I'm seeing a bit of a surge... where's it coming from?
Typically on most Kickstarter projects, if what you want isn't a Limited Reward, just select the reward for one pledge, but actually pledge the total of both rewards you want, and contact the Project people.
Liking this so much i think I'd like to get an extra one for a friend, any way to get multiples in the same pledge?
Love the concept, didn't even need to watch the video to back it. I really hope it reaches its goal!
Like the story, like the people (especially Meg... Rob you're a lucky guy), like the concept !!!
Jesus represents love, faith, hope and forgiveness, Truly !!! This message and your promise to give back should be supported !!! I have prayed for you, and I am sending positive energy !!! We are one !!! Namaste !!!
I'm also surprised GRILLED CHEESUS hasn't met it's goal yet.
The only real question is how this doesn't have $25,000 already?
This is incredible... I cannot wait.
it sure does!!!! thank you chrissy :)
