Makes 8 servings

    1 1/2 pounds provolone cheese                                  
    1/4 cup evoo                                                   
    1 tablespoon dry oregano                                       
    1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Prep Time: 10 minutes/Inactive Prep Time: 1 hour/Cook Time: 3 minutes

Prepare a charcoal or gas grill.

Rub the pieces of provolone all over with the olive oil and season with the rest of the ingredients. Let marinate refrigerated for 1 hour. Grill the cheese on the hot grill over moderately-high heat for about 2 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the cheese just begins to soften.

Transfer the cheese to a metal plate or baking dish on top of the grill. Cook until the cheese just barely starts to melt and begins to brown on the bottom, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Serve hot with crusty bread or grilled bread slices.

MY NOTE: Oddly, this recipe included the following caveat.  Odd because I saw Chiarello cook it, so hasn't it been tested?  Hmm...
"A viewer, who may not be a professional cook, provided this recipe. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe and therefore, we cannot make representation as to the results."
