Imma blat guy. How about you?
Do burritos count as sandwiches?
Always, at least for the purposes of this discussion
If I'm hungry tho a whole muffuletta can be mighty darn satisfying and runs a close, neck and neck kinda, second
Earlier this summer

Yeah a summer blt with good tomatoes on sourdough toast can't really be beat but I love a good Reuben.
Used to be pastrami on rye, but these days dictate a more attenuated avo on onion on toast.
I miss the pickles, lox and bagels of the local Shorewood deli bitd, Marx Brothers, Chalie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy and others I can't dredge right now.
In heresy to the blt.
Ok, stay with me here because this isn't the most manly sandwich and it's French but it's a super good BLT alternative.
Start with a length of good baguette split lengthwise.
Put some good brie on one side then toast it up so the brie is melted.
Then spread apricot jam (bon ma'am preferably) on the other face.
Then layer green apple slices on top of the brie.
Then add a layer of bacon on that and close it up and eat.
BLAT is pretty tasty, but my default is a club. Actually a good banh mi is tough to beat.
blt/a and rueben are up there. meatloaf can be epic and quite nostalgic for me. some fancy steak variants on baguette stand out in memory
Lox with cream cheese, capers, and red onion on a sesame bagel.
Muffuletta from Cochon Butcher in New Orleans may top my list.Quote:

Lego’s (we don’t care about gender) sando variation is on my super short list now. I’d make now if I had ingredients on hand.
Warm Beef on Wick with enough horseradish to make your nose run.
Chicken Parm. I strangely like it with romaine. Or a NY roast beef sliced paper thin with lots of black pepper, mayo, fresh tomato, and shredded lettuce.
That sounds like my go to ski sandwich.Quote:

Hot Italian beef sandwiches. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/16...or-sandwiches/
A good sandwich is usually messy. But doesn't fall apart.
Italian cold cut sandwich Monica’s Mercato North End Boston. Love me. A good Italian with everything on it light on the hots on great bread!
As a Chicago boy. I agree. Italian beef with hots and sweetsQuote:

Mutton, lettuce and tomato on rye.....better than true love.
otherwise onion paper thin prosciutto with sliced Parmesan, sun-fried tomatoes, arugula, onions, oregano evoo and balsamic vinegar on a 1/2 loaf of fresh Italian bread.
Honorable mention to a Mill-run Deli Roast Beef Joe with extra Russian: Three slices of rye smothered with butter and homemade Russian dressing, rare roast beef, homemade Cole slaw and Swiss cheese.

Alternatively, a homemade steak cheese and onion made from leftover holiday prime rib
BLT
Italian combo w shedded iceberg lettuce, olive oil, red wine vinegar(from NJ, NY metro)
Tuna salad
Chicken/Turkey salad
Pastrami/Corned Beef
Eggplant parm/chicken parm
Turkey/avocado/bacon/tomato
Club
Banh mi
Grilled cheese w ham and tomato
Meatloaf
Hot Turkey
These can all be memorable depending on the quality of bread, tomatoes, and of course the meat and cheese.
Such a wide range. I'm a Philly cheesesteak Sandwich kinda guy myself but I'm pretty picky about em.
Lately my favorite has been homemade Reuben sandwiches, but every time I eat one I gain 5 pounds or so. So, it is a rare treat.
I like the hot Italian Beef sandos too, with the hot peppers and au jus.
Gimme a regular johnsonville brat with kraut and frenchies
We are headed down the "sports car" discussion rabbit hole.
I feel phillys, hot beefs, etc are their own category. Cold sandwiches another. Open-face sandwiches are kind of like boneless wings. Lots of gray area in the sandwich world.
I feel the archetype is a proper Club Sandwich and not some over done perversion of it.
The Soda Fountain in Venice, FL does a pretty fucking spot on job of it. If you judged it like they do dog shows, it would win.
Toasted white bread. Crisp bacon. Cut into triangles and secured with long toothpicks adorned with green cellophane ribbon.
The Fiddler's Campground and Market in Sparta, TN is a close second, however they leave the sandwich whole and that's a deduction in my book.
If we get into the abstract Club arena, then I really like J. Alwexanders and a deli called Cinnamon's in Withchita, KS.
Here's a Club Sandwich you can set your watch to.

My favorite is a hot Italian meats grinder from Gil’s in Rutland. House made bread that is amazing and they add some of their seasoned oil on it. Then spiced ham, peppered ham and Italian salami. They use shredded cabbage instead of lettuce. So good and pretty much the only reason to go to Rutland.
Forgot the brown chopped, pulled pork sandwich w cole slaw on top(Flaming Hearth, Memphis(sadly no longer open.)) and beef brisket w slaw.
I almost can’t pick a favorite. I guess a big roast beef sub with lettuce, onions, tomato, Swiss or provolone with Russian dressing or mayo is the one I can always go back to. Over the years, I have gone through Rueben phases, chicken parm phases. When I was in my twenties I ate a lot of Dennys super birds -a variation on the Turkey melt. I’m temporarily off carbs right now so of course I’m spending all my time looking at pizza and sandwiches on the internet.
This is a good principle. Not that having a bunch of dressing or grease or melted cheese leaking out between your fingers makes it taste worse. It doesn’t.Quote:

Goddam... I love me a good Reuben or Cubano, but I'm going to go with a Vietnamese BBQ pork bánh mì as the best.
I'd recommend this place, if you're in the area: https://dragoneats.com/
haven't seen it yet, so I (gotta) offer,
PeanutButter and honey
on a Quality bread

( fewer as I age... ) --
still, that PeanutButter and honey sandwich sounds Very good this morning , and is a
Good pocket , chairlift schnack ! !! 😋

thanks, bbear ! skiJ 🌝
I like a BLT as much as the next guy but my go to sandwich has been and likely always will be a tuna salad on some sort of dark bread, sliced peppercini's, pepper jack cheese, lettuce and tomato. Avo if we are going overboard. I must have so much mercury in me from eating those over the last 55 years.
I’m saying mail order. Delivered on dry ice.Quote:
