  1. Why is fat spread on the bread different than fat poured in the pan? The sandwich comes out different depending your method here. 1A. Which method do you prefer?

  2. What fat do you use? Butter? Mayonnaise? Some super cool other thing that I haven't tried? Again the sandwich comes out different, both in flavor and texture depending on the fat of choice.

  3. Best cheese and bread for the sandwich?

Butter that's foaming in the pan, then whatever basic sandwich bread, then Norwegian "yellow cheese", sort of like a mild Gouda. The cheese itself is good but not that exciting, so a pinch of salt and this or that spice (BBQ spice, garlic powder, chili flakes) is good, or some more flavorful cheese. I like keeping it simple so the butter flavor doesn't get lost, though. Maybe cheat with a tiny bit of extra butter to finish.
