Prepare the baguette: Carefully slice the baguette lengthwise, taking care not to cut all the way through. Gently scoop out most of the soft bread from the interior, leaving a sturdy shell. Reserve the scooped-out bread for another use or discard.

Layer the cheese: Arrange the pepper jack cheese slices evenly along the bottom of the hollowed-out baguette cavity. If using shredded cheese, sprinkle it generously.

Stuff with sausage: Press the ground Italian sausage firmly and evenly over the cheese layer, filling the baguette cavity completely. Ensure the sausage is packed tightly to prevent it from falling out during grilling.

Preheat the grill: Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Grill the sausage side: Carefully place the stuffed baguette onto the preheated grill, sausage-side down. Close the lid and grill for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the sausage is nicely browned and cooked through, with a slight char.

Flip and grill the bread side: Gently flip the baguette so the bread side is now facing down on the grill. Close the lid and grill for another 7 to 10 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is thoroughly melted and bubbly.

Prepare the garlic herb butter: While the baguette is grilling, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in the minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and chopped fresh parsley. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Finish and serve: Once grilled, carefully remove the baguette from the grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Generously brush the entire top surface of the baguette with the prepared garlic herb butter. Slice the baguette into individual portions (about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick) and serve immediately.
