2. This is a serious question - my stepfather is a sandwich guy - I think

he's nuts - open face is twice the fun!

3. has to be sandwich style

if you add salmon roe (yummmmm) cuz otherwise the little eggs would roll right off :crazy:

13. oh my, you are inventive

I never thought of adding roe. Salty goodness!!

4. with open face you can rationalize...

...putting more lox and cream cheese on. And it doesn't squirt out the sides when you take a bite.

I take this subject very seriously. :-)

6. That is exactly right.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

5. Lox.

:puke:


Sorry, Wisconsin baby here, and that just isn't right. Give me home baked bread slathered in butter though. :hi:

[Magrittes Pipe]

7. Yes, Wisconsin.

You do remember the raw hamburger and onions on rye "cannibal sandwich," right? ;)

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Hehehehehe...my family still serves that at Christmas time and New

Year's Eve. It's a family favorite.

11. And yet, lox is somehow icky?

:shrug:

I loves me some smoked fish. But although I like my beef rare, I do like it *somewhat* cooked. ;)

14. Lox are smoked

they're cold smoked as opposed to heat smoked which makes them tender. But they are definitely not raw.

16. Yes, I know.

That's what makes it taste so yummy.

Though raw salmon can be good, too.

Raw hamburger, on the other hand.... :puke:

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. It's not hamburger...It's beef!

That just happens to be ground. ;)

[NanBo]

18. Ohhhhh

:dunce:

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

19. Lox are cured - the cold smoking is for flavor

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. Extreme of ickiness.

I don't know why. I tried it once and bleh...

I don't like the rye bread with my raw beef and onions though...it must me white. and crusty. :hi:

[eyesroll]

9. Open faced.

There is no other way.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

10. Open Faced is kickin much ass!

[helnwhls]

12. open face w/tomato and capers

I am drooling at the thought.
