1 cup Cracker Meal
2 Eggs
1/4 cup Milk
4 tbsp Butter (Melted)
2 tsp Fresh Cracked Pepper

Cooking Directions:
1.  Preheat the oven to broil (highest setting).

2.  Cut the cheese into half, then mix the eggs and milk in a container or bowl. Put the cracker meal or flour in a separate bowl. Dip the cheese into the egg mixture and then in the flour or cracker meal.

3.  Have a pan or iron skillet ready with the 4 tablespoons of melted butter and put the cheese in pan over high heat. Lightly brown on both sides. Put the iron skillet into the oven or transfer cheese onto a sheet of aluminum foil in the pan.

4.  Broil on the bottom rack for 5 minutes until perfectly golden brown. Remove from oven using a pot holder, pour the brandy over the cheese and ignite immediately. Wait 5 seconds until fire goes down a little bit then, extinguish the flame with the lemon.
