Favorite Sub Sandwich - what's your go to selection?

Mayo.

Reminds me of the old MAD Magazine joke.

Flyover-stater walks into a kosher deli: “I’ll have pastrami, on raisin toast, with mayonnaise and extra bread-and-butter pickles.”

Irascible waiter: “Hey, EDDIE! Give me a Gentile Number Seven…with the works!”

At the pizza place, Cheeseburger Grinder with lettuce and mayo only.

At Subway, Turkey extra meat, Swiss, lettuce, tomato, black olives, mayo

Yep, I’m a bland eater.

Subway (yes, we have lots of them in Bangkok): Steak and cheese, foot-long, double meat, extra cheese, pickles, onions, green peppers and Southwest sauce. Just had one last Saturday!

Almost perfect. Just needs some lettuce, and tomato and a dusting of basil and oregano, maybe also some pepperoni if I’m in a spicy mood.

Incidentally anyone who brings mayo anywhere near this sandwich will be guilty of a crime against humanity.

Not counting cheesesteaks, my go-to subs are:

Mixed Italian, with everything. Whatever the deli wants to put on it goes on it

Roast Beef with Lettuce Tomato and Russian Dressing. I have to trust the RB though, I won’t order this at a shady looking place.

Breaded Chicken Cutlet with Lettuce Tomato and Mayo.

Subway’s pastrami, when they have it.

#17 from Lost Dog Cafe.

What they call around here a “Number 1”: Ham Salami and Provolone with Lettuce, Tomato, Onions, Oil, Vinegar and Oregano. Usually I will order it light on the ham, heavy on the salami and extra oregano.

Roast beef and mayonnaise

Listen, man, mayonnaise is god’s way of telling us he loves us and doesn’t want us to choke to death on a dry sandwich, so he in his infinite wisdom gave us that tasty sandwich lube. Slather it on and praise him!

Me too. I have digestive issues. Had my throat and stomach checked with an endoscope. GERD They put me on omeprazol. Helps a lot, but I can’t eat spicy anymore. That means no pepperoni or other spicy deli meats. I miss them.

There was a chain back home in the Midwest called Samuel Mancino’s. They had a vegetable grinder that I just loved - peppers, olives (green and black), onions, mushroom, cheese, the usual. But something about it made it tastier than any I’ve had elsewhere. Some days I really crave one. And I always swing by to grab one whenever I make it back home to visit.

The all cheese. Usually not on the menu, so I have to pay a premium. Every type of cheese, with lettuce, onion, oil, and vinegar. It’s my go to sub sandwich.

That, in turn, reminds of the Krusty the Clown Sandwich from “The Simpsons”: Ham, sausage, and bacon with mayo on white bread.

I don’t know what my favorite is. Maybe tuna. For me, my main opinions for subs are a) I don’t want *vegetable subs, and I don’t care for lettuce. Other than that, I’m pretty cool with everything else.

*If I’m going to eat a salad, I’d rather just eat a salad with a side of bread, not a salad sandwich.

I just noticed this… you do know that they only put on whatever veggies you ask them to don’t you?

Just about anything from the Sheetz sub menu will do me fine.

My absolute favorite Italian sub is a Moe’s regular Italianwith oil from Moe’s Sub Shop, they’re a tradition here in southern sea coastal New England

It’s a simple sandwich but they use some form of witchcraft to elevate it’s tastiness far beyond what it should be, it’s not the oil, because a “dry” Moe’s Regular is still astonishingly tasty

When I first moved/lived in Altoona, PA a few years ago, I discovered the Sheetz on 17th and 220. Man I miss their subs.
In fact, their whole menu and ordering system were astounding.
Nothing like that here. :frowning:

Subway definitely takes hind tit to Sheetz. So does Quiznos. So do the majority of mom n’ pop sub shops I’ve tried. Their coffee bar is at least the equal of Starbucks to boot. The only thing they don’t offer is seating in most stores and, because of our retarded-ass laws, PA stores don’t sell beer and wine.

Pretty much anything Italian here as well.
Jersey Mike’s #13, for example. Or Eegee’s Italian grinder.
