Black Forrest ham, swiss, leaf lettuce, plum tomatoes, grain mustard on pumpernickle. Yum.
Just had lunch -
Asiago chicken with American cheese, lettuce and sliced olives and Caesar dressing in a tortilla wrap. (Warm!)
Okay, and a chocolate chip cookie.
Feh, corned beef OR tongue, muenster, mayo, spicy brown mustard, coupla sprouts on rye. With a kosher dill spear on the side.
Now THAT’S a sammich!
BLT on toasted white…to hell with cheeses I can’t pronounce, meat I wouldn’t feed my dog, artsy fartsy sandwiches. Damn! It’s a sandwich for goodness sake not an episode of the “Iron Chef challenge”.
Oh yeah and with mayo not that nasty gelatinous sweet shit Miracle Whip! And iceburg lettuce, the lettuce should break and crunch just right.

Olent, you looking for a Jewish guy to give you some tongue again???
And my personal favorite sammich is sliced chicken and Havarti on wheat with house dressing from the Cheese Shop in Williamsburg. Mmmmmm…
Tomorrow it’s a sangwich. Pernil w/mayo on wheat. If you don’t know what “pernil” is, I feel really bad for you.
This being the time of the year that it is…
Leftover turkey, mayonaise (I agree with Needs2Know, Miracle Whip is demon spawn), lettuce (iceberg or romaine - as long as it has a crunch), a bit of cranberry sauce, and lots of black pepper on white bread.

I love sandwiches and make myself one everyday for lunch (I’m a big boy). Here’s a really good one - peppered turkey on an asiago or everything bagel, swiss cheese, light mayo, and mustard.
I suppose this may fall in the “artsy” sandwich category, but Panera Bread has some delicious selections!!! I can’t get enough of that place!
All this talk has made me hungry. Gotta go.
Okay so pity me and fight my ignorance.
What’n the heck is ‘pernil’? Sounds like the guy from “Gunsmoke”.
Oh, BG’s just flexing her Brooklyn muscles again.
While I agree with every single one of the above (other than Miracle Whip, that stuff RULES!), and am now drooling on myself, I’ve REALLY been craving good, smoked, southern barbeque. With a scoop of coleslaw on the sandwich. Damn, anyone care to ship me one or two of those babies?
I posted about a sandwich once and got ridiculed for my tates.
Anyway, I’m a pretty picky eater. The ONLY type of cold cut I like is Boar’s Head, and the best subs are made by Publix.
I like: cracked peppermill Boar’s Head turkey on a white sub roll. Spicy deli mustard, no mayo. Sharp cheddar cheese, lettuce (a lot of lettuce), banana peppers, onions, green peppers, and jalapenos! Sometimes a little oil and vinegar and salt and pepper.

Excellent pernil recipe, although I like to put fennel seed in mine.
Mi abuela never taught me how to make pasteles. Got a recipe for that?
Damn you Nymysys for bringing up the bbq sandwich, aka, food of the gods! I’ve been trying to figure out exactly what I’m hungry for right now, and that is it! And I’m in Germany right now, where they have no idea how to make proper ribs, much less a succelent pork shoulder, smoked to perfection.
And yes, it must have coleslaw on top, and just enough sauce…not too much, so as to overwhelm the porky goodness of the meat, but just to add that final mouth-tingaling ooomph.
And I hope you don’t mean that icky Carolina bbq, that is just wrong. Memphis-style is the only way to go.
I know Corky’s will fed-ex it, but it costs the earth.
You know what, I’ve been putting it off, but this year I am going to figure out how to build a pit smoker in our apartment without killing us all.
1 of 2 (both served hot)
roast beef, swiss, on garlic hero, with dipping gravy
corned beef, swiss, brown mustard. regular hero
provolone can be substituted for swiss.
anyone eating mayo on corned beef should be shot.
And I forgot, but the slaw must be chopped, not shredded. It does make a difference, on this point I will not budge.
Mmmm… Corned Beef w/ mayo
<Bang>
Ouch!
Mmmm… Pastrami w/ mayo
<Bang>
Hey!
Mmmm… French fries w/ mayo
<?>
When I was in high school, I wrote an essay that was published in the literary magazine about the symbolism of the peanut butter and jelly sammich according to a fictional Eastern tribe.
When I slap stuff in between two slices of bread, however, it’s likely to be turkey, ham, chicken, or a combination of these with Miracle Whip and some kind of cheese.
BTW, I was reading a Spenser novel (Promised Land, IIRC) that had a scene in which something called “linguica” was discussed. Can anyone tell me what that is?

ARGH!!! DAMN YOU, TATER!
Now I want ribs from Corky’s. Haven’t been there in over a year, since ribs ain’t on the diet. Now where the hell is that bottle of barbeque sauce my mom bought at Corky’s and mailed to me…
Oh MAN, linguiça! That stuff rocks! It’s basically, as I understand it, spiced sausage baked in a long, thin loaf. I used to live about half a block from this out-of-the-way Portuguese bakery and would pick it up fresh two or three times a week. Tasty stuff! If you can get hold of any, expecially fresh, I heartily recommend it.
