What is you favorite sandwich?

We were sidetracked on another thread by a conversation about corned beef sandwiches and I thought it might be fun to do a poll on our favorite sandwich.

If I left any out, I apologize. The "Other" function will give you the chance to tell us. OK?


Here we go.

So, where's your list, Tim??

Can we just say what our favourite sandwich is?

If so, my favourite is sliced avocado, tomato, sprouts and lettuce, with mayo on lightly toasted whole wheat bread [the great big slices] with a kosher dill pickle on the side.

Sorry about that, but I just had to tell you what my favourite sandwich is.

Salmonburger on toasted Rye with VT Cheddar, Romaine, tomato, red onion, capers and good mustard.

I get the Salmonburgers at Costco in a sleeve - packaged a bit like rice cakes.

(drooling now,... sorry...)

One of the greatest sangwiches ever invented is the muffaletta.

For me, it depends on where I am and the local available ingredients.

Right now, it would be locally smoked turkey with swiss, on toast, a little mayo.

Getting decent bread locally with regularity has become a problem.

Second best right now would be grilled cheese using an extra-sharp Vermont cheddar.

I'm outraged that egg and egg salad are the same category.

Other: my variant on the Cuban sandwich, though I've never actually eaten it.

When I first lived in Park Slope, in 1978, the neighborhood was full of German delis, now all gone. One of them, across the street from me, Herzog's, roasted a whole turkey every day. My favorite sandwich at the time was turkey, liverwurst, cole slaw, onions and Russian dressing on a hero.

What the fuck is "chili-size"?

It strikes me that, unless there's a bit memory gap, I have never ever eaten an egg salad sandwich. Can't do mayo on anything either (unless very, very moderately included in tuna salad). I'll take either of the sandwiches in Jimmy's pics, happily!

Biv, thinly sliced rare roast beef with mayo (Gotta be Hellman's) and freshly ground black pepper is another all time favorite. Sometimes I slip in some thinly sliced provolone as well.

Yep, I believe it says that on the side of the jar. I remember Ron Thorne pointing that out once.

You make the provolone component sound dishonest.

Jason,

A Chili-Size


A little history:

"....chili was once called “size” in the town known [as Los Angeles, CA]. “Size” came into usage by way of one Ptomaine Tommy, once proprietor of the largest and best known chili parlor in the city. Ptomaine Tommy served straight chili and an epical Southwestern variation, a hamburger smothered with chili. He had two ladles, a large and a small. When a customer ordered straight chili, he got out the large ladle. When he wanted the other, he usually said “Hamburger size.” So Ptomaine Tommy put up one sign that read HAMBURGER SIZE 15˘, and another that read CHILI SIZE 20˘. Other chili joints followed suit and before long chili was know throughout Los Angeles as “size”. They’d say, “Just gimme a bowl of size.”
