Tips & Variations

- If you don’t have BBQ sesame bread, any thick-cut sandwich bread or brioche works well as a substitute.
- Adjust the garlic salt amount according to your taste preference or substitute with garlic powder and regular salt.
Storage
Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day to maintain crispness. To reheat, briefly toast in a skillet or oven to restore the buttery crunch; microwaving is not recommended as it can make the bread soggy.

FAQs
Can I use regular bread instead of BBQ sesame bread?
Yes, you can use any type of bread you have on hand, such as sandwich bread, brioche, or sourdough, though the final flavor may vary slightly.
Can I make this bread ahead of time?
It’s best served fresh for maximum crispness, but you can prepare the garlic butter mixture ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Apply and cook the bread just before serving.
