Favourite sandwich?

[PartyPooper]

Mine is tuna fish on whole wheat...lite on the mayo with lettuce and tomato! Crisps (potato chips) are a bonus. Yum!

What's yours?

1. Egg salad or grilled cheese with tomatoes.

Egg salad in the summer, grilled cheese in the winter.

Pcat

[Patsy Stone]

2. Hot or Cold?

Hot: French Dip w/Fries
Cold: Turkey on Rye with Russian Dressing

Always appreciated and always acceptable: Grilled Cheese.

[PartyPooper]

4. I *love* French Dip Sandwiches!

They're one of the best ever invented! Add fries or potato salad and cole slaw...and, well, you've got a little bit of heaven on earth.

:9

[Patsy Stone]

9. You betcha

There was Karaoke place by my house (sadly, closed) that served the best Martinis and a killer French Dip. Drunk, singing and eating that sandwich. It was the best of times...

[RagingInMiami]

17. what place was that?

[Patsy Stone]

20. The 1800 Club

It's a condo now. By Omni. For years it was a grat dive with Karaoke. So hot.

[RagingInMiami]

i'm not familiar with it

but it seems like everything in that area is becoming a condo.

[Patsy Stone]

39. Yep. One gigantic condo. :( n/t

[Zuni]

58. That sounds really good

A french dip with potato salad.......mmmmmmmmmm

[fluffernutter]

3. turkey, crispy bacon, sprouts and mayo & avocado on wheat.

[AlCzervik]

6. you must be in california

Since i've moved here i found out quick to order a sandwhich w/o lots of thing, avacados and sprouts.

[fluffernutter]

19. what? you have a problem with avo and sprouts? ;)

not from california, just visit there.

[AlCzervik]

23. i have a problem with automatically being on a sandwich

with no warning.

[fluffernutter]

35. yeah, i can understand that.

do they all really come like that down there? i have only actually been to cali (L.A.) a couple times.

[AlCzervik]

37. I'm in northern california and up here if i were

to order a PB&J i'd have to specify no sprouts.

[fluffernutter]

43. good lord, that is nuts!

you northern californians are so healthy ;) i really only like them on that one sandwich, anything else and i'd be a little ticked too.

[Longgrain]

24. fluffernutter N/T

;)

Maybe I'll answer...

[Cadence]

50. Is the fluffernutter

peanut butter with marshmallow cream?

[Merlot]

5. Grilled Vegitable Pannini

with olive oil, aoili pesto, and parmasan cheese.

More calories than a burger, but less fat and twice as tasty.

[RagingInMiami]

18. they don't call you merlot for nothing

[maveric]

7. Corned Beef Reuben. Heavy on the kraut,

With a big kosher dill and slaw.

[MissMillie]

57. I'll second that!

I love a Reuben sandwich.

(Man, I miss sandwiches....)

[Zuni]

59. My favorite is a pastrami Reuben

with a side of chili fries, a kosher pickle and a cherry coke.

[meganmonkey]

8. #85 JVW's Detroit St. BBQ

Zingerman's barbecued amish chicken, applewood-smoked bacon & coleslaw on grilled sourdough bread. Served with a side of applewood-smoked baked beans.

[progmom]

11. is that the one they used to serve with a side of

alka-seltzer?

Love my Zingermans sandwiches!!

[meganmonkey]

36. Hello, fellow TreeTown-er!

:hi:

[progmom]

40. Howdy!

:toast:

[flamingyouth]

10. Chicken banh mi at the Seattle Deli

And such a steal at only $1.75 :9

[Guy Fawkes]

12. Grilled cheese!

and don't forget- chocolate milk!

[Merlot]

45. Grilled Cheese - Italian Style

Use sourdough bread, buttered with garlic butter. Jack cheese ( I know, it's not the most Italian of cheeses, but it's the oilest and that's what counts). Thin sliced tomato inside, and bacon bits. And since the bread is so big, you slice it like a pizza!

We made these when I was a kid...

[progmom]

13. I've got two faves I alternate between

#55 Gemini Rocks the House
Zingerman's own handmade fresh mozzarella, tomatoes & garlicky italian pesto on grilled farm bread.

and


#5 Rodger's Big Picnic
Oven-roasted asparagus, grilled marinated portabello mushrooms, vermont cheddar cheese & dijon vinaigrette on grilled farm bread.


Both can be found at my favorite Ann Arbor deli: Zingerman's.

[Raster]

14. corned beef, smoked tongue and pastrami on a kaiser roll with...

swiss cheese, cole slaw and russian dressing.

[jpgray]

15. Personal creation of mine

Pepper turkey breast on vienna poppyseed bread with baby spinach, goat cheese, roasted tomatoes, roasted red peppers and honey mustard.

Perfect. And easy to make for lunch while I make breakfast. :9

[fluffernutter]

16. mmm, that does sound delectable!

[GoldenOldie]

27. Grilled cheese, crispy bacon, tomato

Any type of bread. Fry bacon crispy then include with the cheese and tomato. It's a Jersey thing. During a motor trip through the Ozarks during the later 50's, stopped at a small family owned restaurant and asked for this sandwich. The waitress with her charming accent, was delighted to have the cook make this weird grilled cheese sandwich. When the sandwich arrived, the bacon and tomato was pinned to the outside of the sandwich with a toothpick. They just couldn't place that bacon and tomato together with the cheese. It was a delightful experience but not the sandwich we had hungered for.

[goodbody]

21. exactly what you're having - tuna

tuna on wheat, sometimes sourdough. Lettuce, tomato, sometimes onion and if making it at home, some celery and/or parsley chopped up. Tuna!

A close runner-up, though, is turkey with Havarti cheese and avocado.

[donheld]

48. Welcome to DU

:hi:

[goodbody]

51. thank you

thanks, donheld, for the welcome!

[bearfan454]

22. Deer hard salami on Jewish Rye with 1015 onions.

dry.

[RagingInMiami]

25. Lately I've been craving a good ...

croque monsieur. I know we're suppose to hate the French and all, but man, can they make a good sandwich.

I can't pinpoint one sandwich, but these are my favorites:
Salami, proscuitto, provolone panini on a ciabatta; Corned beef and swiss on rye; BBQ beef (has to be from the south, not the west); New Orleans muffeleta: and what we get in Miami, a grilled ham, pork and swiss Cuban sandwich.

[JimmyJazz]

26. Mine is a cheesesteak hoagie:

It's a cheese steak with lettuce, tomato, pickles, mayo and ketchup.

:9

da best.

[Zuni]

60. add some hots to that

and it is indeed a hard sandwich to beat.

[fluffernutter]

28. oh, can't forget the ever-tasty fluffernutter sandwich

:9

[progmom]

62. wow that's really really gross looking.

eeuw.

[DrWeird]

30. Cuban.

Deli down the street does a real good one. They put jalapenos on it can call it a Tony Montana.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

52. Ahhh - El Presidente!

Bueno!

[cmkramer]

31. Another peanut butter fan

I like it with mayonnaise although jelly,honey, and marshmallow creme are good too.

I also like Monte Cristos which are ham, turkey and melted cheese on French toast and topped with jam. They're really good although obviously not something you'd want every day.

[sakabatou]

32. Salami with lettice on sour dough

[guitar man]

33. The "Badwich"

There is a place in Tulsa called Elmer's BBQ down on Peoria. The "Badwich" is a little bit of everything they have on a bun, including a rib. The hot BBQ sauce will remove paint, so it's best to mix it with some of the mild!

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

34. Ice cream

[Arkana]

38. Genoa salami, mortadella, and a slice of Fontinella cheese

on a kaiser roll with dressing. :9

[WMliberal]

47. mmmmmm. until the kaiser roll!

get some foccacia!

[Arkana]

54. The roll is the variable...whatever works is good

except for white bread. No white bread.

[Catchawave]

42. Grilled cheese and tomato....n/t

[u4ic]

44. BLT

especially when the veggies are fresh from the garden.

[WMliberal]

46. prosciutto on foccacia with aspen mustard, havarti cheese,

roasted/marinated tomatoes, and watercress. YUUUUUUUUM YUUUUUUUUUUUUM.

[Nicole]

49. BLT with avocado

good stuff!

[Courtesy Flush]

53. The "original"

If you go to any Italian deli, and they have a sandwich called the original, it's got to be good. It'll probably be a different sandwich in every deli, but they'll all be good.

[Left Is Write]

55. I like egg salad on whole wheat, toasted or not, with some crisp

green leaf lettuce.

I also like thinly sliced turkey with bacon, Swiss cheese, and lettuce on whole wheat or multigrain bread.

[Zuni]

Pastrami Rueben

grilled to perfection, with a side of chili fries and a cherry coke----mmmmmmmmmmmmm

[mondo joe]

56. Mozz/Tomato/Basil on focaccia. Or Chicken Salad.

Mortadella and salami with some havarti is awfully good too.

[Bertha Venation]

61. takes a little work, but it's luscious (and not low-cal)

Marinate chicken thighs in soy sauce, about half an hour, then saute until done. Still hot, put one or two thighs on a soft 6" sandwich roll (no mayo required but you can use it if you want). Top with hot roasted red peppers* and sauted onions, then top with a slice of fontina or asiago cheese. :9

* roasted red peppers have become such a fad, such a cliche, but they really are wonderful and are perfect in this sandwich

[Phillycat]

63. Italian hoagie from any deli in Philly.

Hard salami, capicolla, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, oil (NO MAYO EVER), and I like mine with sweet peppers. Lots of people like onions and hot peppers too. But it has to be an Amoroso roll.

[jmowreader]

64. The two best sandwiches in the world

are Jim's Ultimate Grilled Tuna and Lew Rothman's BBB.

Jim's Ultimate Grilled Tuna is a fresh tuna filet grilled over open coals between two slices of toasted Italian bread with dill sauce, lettuce and tomato.

Lew Rothman's BBB is really a protest sandwich. He said he was getting pissed-off that the restaurants in his area were cutting back on the bacon in a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich, so he invented the BBB--which means Bacon, Bacon and More Bacon. A BBB is a whole pound of Oscar Meyer bacon between two slices of toasted Wonder bread with Hellman's Mayo on both.
