A couple of times lately, I've tried to put a bit of "brown" on soft
sandwich buns (which I think contain more sugar than some sorts of
bread), both on a hot grill, and in an electric buffet skillet where I
was cooking the sandwich innards. One time, I spread a bit of butter on
the cut sides of the buns, that other, I just wanted to use a bit of
grease that was in the pan.

Every time, the buns welded themselves to the hot metal, to the extent
that they had to be scraped off with a metal spatula, and the result
wasn't pretty.

So, how do I get them a bit toasty without the sticking (and, of course,
without using a regular toaster)?

Use the toaster/griller portion of your stove.

I'm scratching my head over why his buns stick in the first place.
Maybe he shouldn't be putting anything on the cut side until he has
browned them. I just slap a naked bun on the grill or pan and don't
have a problem. It's never even occurred to me that it could happen.

I use the topbrown setting of my toaster oven for one minute - I can
get a bit of crust on the inner sides, but the outer remains soft.
(No roof-of-mouth-barking.)
