It isn’t in my top three, maybe not my top ten (but I need to make room for lots of muffelatas, thanks **Johnny** and lots of subs), but this is outlandish and fo’ real at the same time:

We grew up calling this Elena Ruth. Srsly good.

And no one’s even mentioned media noches.

Bacon, piled high on toasted 9 grain with nuts bread, a bit of Miracle Whip and a slice of melty American cheese would be my first choice.

CLOSE second hot roast beef, sliced deli thin, swiss cheese, sauteed onions, on a sourdough sub loaf.

</div>

Pumpernickel  
Thinly sliced, warm roast beef  
Smoked gouda  
Dark, grainy mustard

If allowed veggies at all (and I really don’t count these as veggies so much as condiments), sauteed baby portabella mushrooms, red bell peppers and onions.

Of course, another classic is the good ol’ “a couple slices of everything you can find at the buffet table” sandwich. Which usually ends up needing a couple of 8-inch toothpicks to hold it all together.
