These were just like the sandwiches at the famous eatery that I go to. I made them for a family get together and served with raspberry chipolte sauce!

I love this sandwich! Easy to make, a bit messy, but definitely worth it :)

Making this recipe was my first experience with monte cristo sandwiches, and they were delicious! Surprisingly, they also reheat very well, even in the microwave.

If these hadn't made such a mess cooking them I would have given this 5 stars. I LOVED these. Never had a Monte Cristo before, but was intrigued by it. Way to fatty to have very often, but what a decadent treat! Only changes was to use multi-gran bread (it's what we keep on hand) and to double the batter (had some left over - might try only doing 1/2 again as much next time). We dipped in seedless raspberry preserves.

Tastes just like the one I used to get in Nevada! The entire family loved it, including my mother-in-law (who is a GREAT cook herself). I used peanut oil in my deep fryer, which helped to keep it from burning too easily, and served pasta salad along side. I think those who seem concerned about the greasiness or fatty content of this dish should look elsewhere anyway. What did they expect for something battered and deep-fried! Serve a green salad instead. We will definitely have this again.

Sinfully good! Easy to make too. I will make again, and change the meat/cheese combination. I imagine anything would be good.

w0w! This was great and ridiculously easy to make. It didn't take any hardcore measuring and I can't wait to make these for other people. My family loved it.

Absolutely wonderful. I fell in love with the Monte Cristo as a child in some cafe in the old Opryland theme park in Nashville. Nearly 40 years later I can say that this is the best I've had. And not too difficult to make. Thanks a ton!

I tried out this recipe since it was past closing time, and this definitely hit the spot. I'm a little slow & don't have a deep fryer, so it took me a little longer to get all of this together -- used colby jack and about 4 slices of thin-cut turkey & ham, served with raspberry preserves. Great!

Excellent sandwich for students to make with extra stuff lying around the house. Subed Old Cheddar for Swiss and fried it in a pan with just a little margarine, like french toast. Absolutely amazing.

I was very curious about this sandwich so decided to make it for dinner. My husband and I with raised brows took our first bite and were pleasantly surprised. Again with curiousity we tried our next bites with strawberry jam. Very tasty! But I honestly don't think I'll make it again unless I happen to have some odd reason to gain weight. I just can't justify eating a batter dipped sandwich. Hubby thought we should have deep fried candy bars with it, hehe. Good recipe but not worth the calories.

I decided to be daring and make the recipe exactly as written but grill on a Foreman Grill to reduce the grease. It wasn't greasy but the bread dried out.
