Sandwich Experimenting

[BC38]

I do like the sound of that. I haven't had toasted cheese sandwiches in a long time probably years. A light case of Type 2 Diabetes so I watch what I eat. I'm also cheap so I made some out of Swiss cheese with some bacon bits added. Very tasty! I also made some using Velveeta slices, once again was good and then some with Cheese Whiz. I haven't had Cheese Whiz since the 70's. A bit salty but still tastes the same to me. I may never make them again but I did enjoy having them again.

We always have a 1-pound ziplock bag of bacon bits from Costco in the freezer.
I thought about making my sandwich with those, but since I could cook 3 strips of bacon in the microwave while I was grilling the bread & cheese in a skillet on the stove, I decided it was worth the little bit of extra effort. But the bacon bits are always a good alternative, just not quite as satisfying as full strips of bacon.
I like to whip up an egg & bacon "patty" with a couple of eggs and a handful of those bacon bits, and make it into a sandwich with a couple toasted bread slices and a slice of American cheese. Makes a great breakfast sandwich.
I don't have one of those for breakfast as often as I used to. My cholesterol numbers were just a bit on the high side when I had my annual physical in January.

Peanut butter, ketchup, lettuce on lightly toasted white bread.
You’ll thank me later

tried a new to us tonight.
Sausage patties on the grill, Fresh raw jalapenos, raw onion, mustard on one side and mayo on the other. My wife skipped the mustard and mayo and used Jalapeno ketchup.
sorry no pics

This thread made me fatter, thanks. Our four day long process of making a beef tongue for sandwiches ended today. Bought my seeded rye bread, spicy mustard and red onion sandwich today with homemade coleslaw on the side was fabulous. We need a breakfast thread next.

I'm a bit pedestrian; give me a BLT on toast, made with crispy bacon, light on the mayo and I'm in heaven.

Ditto BLT, the only sammich worth paying money for!

It would take a chunk of bandwidth to list all the tasty restaurant sandwiches that I used to and hopefully one day will enjoy again.

Sardines, peanut butter, and cottage cheese on rye makes for an excellent late night snack sammich.

I can remember having canned brown bread as a child. I didn't realize it was still being sold. I'm going to have to look for some.

I had a few cans of salmon about to hit their 'expiration date', so I made up a batch of salmon croquets like Mom used to. My favorite way to eat them is as a sandwich. Yesterday I took one of the patties, a slice of provolone, a brioche bun, and some good olive oil. put them all together and nuked it to not quite hot. It was wonderful.

The muffaletta from the sandwich shop down the road is my absolute favorite.

Lunch today was at Portillo’s, because we were in the neighborhood. Sweetie had a Chicago dog, hot dog, onions, pickle, yellow mustard, sweet relish, sport peppers, celery salt and tomato, on a poppy seed bun.
I went for Italian beef with mozzarella, sweet peppers, and hot gardiniera, with extra gravy.

For homemade sandwiches, Rusty covered it nicely, with limburger or braunschweiger, with onions and mustard on dark rye. The only problem is, almost nobody will sell you a loaf of pumpernickel any more. Marble rye is all you can get at a grocery store. For real dark rye, you have to go to a specialty bakery, and get there before it sells out.,

Wife ordered muffalatos from Central Grocery in New Orleans several months ago. Took us back to when we lived there. But wasn’t cheap, but oh so good.

By Tuesday it would appear in some kind of pasta dish with other ingredients. We called it "Turkey lurkey" because it was "lurking" in front of the fridge for days by then. Joe

Once a month we have a muzzle loading shoot on a Sunday, it's been going on since '62. On the day of event a pair of guys team up and run the shoot which usually includes providing lunch. I was running a shoot in November, the second Sunday is the usual date, except for May because no one messes with Mother's Day. Anyway, I decided to take six or seven boxes of Miss Cubbison's Stuffing Mix, add a bunch of celery and onions and about 10 cans of canned Turkey from Costco, I also added a couple cans of Turkey gravy retaining around four cans for adding as you wished along with half a dozen cans of jellied cranberry sauce. I mixed it all up, stuck it in a big roasting pan, put it in the oven, served it up and it was so good that I had at least one proposal for marriage.

While in New Orleans I had a "Debris" sandwich. I asked what makes up "Debris", the waitress told me that it was all the scrapings from the bottom of the meat roasting pan, prepared daily from yesterdays roasting. It was amazing...incidently about the cheapest thing on the menu, which often is the best.
