A restaurant style cheesy garlic bread that’s ooey, gooey, rich and creamy, and crisp and crunchy. A fabulous side dish for whatever you’re grilling or your next Italian meal.
This month’s theme for Progressive Eats, our virtual progressive dinner, is a Summer Barbecue hosted by Liz of That Skinny Chick Can Bake. It’s a delicious end of summer menu that will be perfect for your next cookout or Labor Day gathering. I signed up to bring bread to the virtual diner, and my favorite cheesy garlic bread came to mind.
There use to be a Black Angus restaurant near where we live; my husband and I use to go there about once a month. They served a pretty good steak, but it was the cheesy garlic bread that kept me coming back. We’d order it as an appetizer and then usually by the time my steak came, I was too full to eat it. So sometimes we’d stop in to the restaurant, head to the bar and just order a drink and the garlic bread before heading to a movie. The bread really was the reason I wanted to go to the restaurant any way.
All the Black Angus restaurants in Utah closed. They’re still open in six states, so if you live in California, Washington, Arizona, Hawaii, New Mexico, or Alaska, you can still go and try this bread. For the rest of us, this is my adapted version of their recipe you can make at home. Just be careful, it can be addicting.

It is called three cheese but it has only two listed. It sounds great… I was just wondering.
Barbara Schieving
Hi June – The shredded cheese I used was a blend of cheddar and jack. You could certainly buy both and shredded your own. Thanks for the question
Winnie
This looks so delicious! I love garlic bread, and add cheese, well, that will be heaven for me.

I would go to a restaurant to just eat this bread too. Crunchy, oooey gooey and so flavorful. I wish this was a real progressive dinner so I could taste this bread.
Kitchen Belleicious
the mayo is the kicker as I have definitely found the cheese doesn’t adhere to the bread as well without it. Love this bread. It would be a winner with everyone in my family
Jenni
Ha! I’d be the one at the steak house all full of bread, too! I can see why this would be addictive, Barbara–yum!
