Grilled cheese using leftover shredded Swiss cheese on Dave’s multigrain. Cooked it on medium-low for a while to build up a nice golden crust. Unlike my wife who insists on cooking it on high and burns it and claims she likes it burnt. No you don’t, you’re lazy and impatient!

This isn’t really about your sandwich, is it?

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

My post is entirely about sandwiches. She also uses every vessel and utensil in the kitchen and piles them into the sink.

“The Gobbler” is a post-Thanksgiving tradition in my family. Get out the ancient, heavy panini press that is probably 80 years old (I could do a core sample of the accumulated grease and count the rings I guess). As you might assume it contains all of the thanksgiving leftovers. This year my sandwich had a bigass brioche bun between which was crammed:

  • turkey
  • stuffing
  • cranberry sauce
  • green beans
  • sweet potatoes
  • swiss and Gouda cheeses
  • chipotle mayo

Add a little butter on the outside and gingerly apply pressure so it doesn’t come apart. After a few minutes you have a several-inch-thick slab of deliciousness.

I should have taken a photo because it was a thing of beauty. Maybe next year.

Does two slices of pizza put together count as a sandwich?

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I say yes, but this is an Internet forum and you likely just started an international incident.

I had a couple of hot dogs the other day.

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Pimento cheese and a slice of tomato grilled on buttered sourdough. A southern classic

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Tried Jersey Mike's for the first time yesterday, got a Philly. Gat damn, that shit was fire.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

If you ever get chance to have the real deal go for it, just avoid the tourist traps (Pat’s and Geno’s are not great). Or a roast pork. I think Philly roast pork sandwiches are even better than the steaks. Extra sharp provolone, juicy pork, and broccoli rabe or spinach, mmmm. Getting hungry just thinking about it.

I really gotta get down to the Reading Terminal…

Wow, it's been a bit of a while since I last ate a sandwich! It was between two slices of wholemeal bread, with hummus as the spread, and sliced cucumber and tomato. I rather I enjoyed it.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 1 month ago

Amsterdam ox sausage with diced onion, black pepper and sliced boiled egg with some remoulade dressing.

[–] presoak@lazysoci.al 5 points 1 month ago

Smooshy dinner rolls, leftover tg ham, weird amish pickles, some cheese, brown mustard.

Not bad.

[–] HurricaneLiz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Spicy fried chicken sandwich with coleslaw on it. The restaurant also has the best cronuts and donuts I've ever had!

[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Somewhat stale bread with butter, liver pate, cheese and some hot sauce.

It did the job of feeding me and getting rid of the leftover bread. The one before that was better with non stale bread.

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Not my proudest sandwich.

The package of sourdough bread only had three slices left, two stumps and one slice. So, naturally, this was going to be BigMac style.

I then had crispy fried onions leftover from Thanksgiving.

So, the layering was:

  • Bread Stump
  • Bbq sauce
  • Fried onions
  • Cheese
  • Bread slice
  • Fried onions
  • Cheese
  • Bread stump

7/10

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

A medley of Thanksgiving leftovers + Russian dressing. As is tradition

This cafe in San Antonio - it's been around for like 30 years called Picnikins. A friend introduce me to them a couple of years ago.

I like the Ultimate - Smoked turkey breast, bacon, avocado, tomato, sprouts, mayonnaise and cream cheese on marbled rye.

It may be pedestrian compared to some of the amazing things you all are eating and the name is definitely overblown but it's a lovely sandwich. As a side you can get a creamy poblano soup that is very very rich.

Wife made me a ham, cheese, pickle and mayo on wheat. It was good.

I don't usually make sandwiches myself. If I'm hungry I'll usually make a bowl of canned soup.

[–] quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Last one wasn't very good, canned mackerel with potato chips. I was hungry and I didn't feel like cooking or making a proper sandwich.

[–] Bongles@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

I usually make wraps, since the tortilla lasts longer than bread, but the last sandwich I had was just turkey, cheddar, mayo, and mustard on white bread.

[–] SalamenceFury@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Last one I ate was a Subway order, it was like... an italian BMT. I had tomatoes, onions, and lettuce as vegetables, cheddar cheese, some olive oil, and the sauces were parmesan and seasoned herb mayo on a butter and garlic bread.

It was fine. Brazil does have higher standards for food, so it was pretty good and filling. I just uh, had a bit of trouble with the pepperoni spice but that's mostly cause I'm a lightweight when it comes to that 😅

Random ham sandwich offered via a seminar at work, no idea of the exact ingredients... served with Coke-zero on the side. This happened yesterday

[–] RodgeGrabTheCat@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Kaiser roll, mayo, Italian cheese blend, Montreal Smoked Meat, Black Forest Ham, coleslaw with a side of Tater Tots.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

There's a place nearby that serves BBQ out of a truck until 4 PM every day. Just off the side of the highway. No tables or anything. Just a food truck and a truck sized smoker.

I used the back of my car as a makeshift table and happily ate my pulled pork sandwich and macaroni. Really good. And the lady called me "sugar." 10/10

[–] jade52@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

A TLTA: tempeh, lettuce, tomato, avocado 🤌

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

My local good deal, "kippeling" (pieces of battered and fried chicken breast) in a brown baguette with "joeppi sauce" and I added my own hot sauce on top for extra kick.

[–] Novamdomum@fedia.io 3 points 1 month ago

Sainsbury's Meal Deal (Xmas themed) "Pigs Under Blankets" sandwich - with cranberry chutney on malted bread. Cumberland sausage, beechwood smoked bacon, cranberry chutney and mayonnaise on malted bread.

Just an average sandwich really, nothing to write home about. Ate it about an hour ago. Best bit was the "grab bag" of barbecue beef hula hoops that I got with it in the meal deal.

[–] SayJess@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Whopper Jr. It was pretty good.

[–] samburwell96@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

Whoa we a bunch of sourdough folks up in here! I had a pb and honey sandwich last night, and I have one with Thanksgiving turkey for lunch later!

[–] banshee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Peanut butter, and tomorrow I plan to have a peanut butter and pickle sandwich.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

It was an abomination.

Dark bread (wheat/rye mix), homemade, mustard, mortadela, cheese, letuce and a slice of tomato.

Fit it's role.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Turkey-Havarti on Amtrak Acela! The bread wasn’t memorable and the sandwich was small, but it tasted good and Acela is a great way to travel

If you grade Amtrak food relative to airline food, it’s outstanding!

[–] edg@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Leftover turkey on toasted white bread with mayo, dijon mustard, dash of tobasco, and a ton of chow chow. So good.

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A local Mexican restaurant served a really good Barbeque cheeseburger compared to local sandwich restaurants.

Two halves of rye bread, toasted, butter on the bottom half. Gouda cheese, cucumber slices with salt, and mettwurst.

I eat 4 of these every single day.

[–] spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I can't remember, but the other day I folded a pancake around a piece of butter and ate that.

[–] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Peanut butter and jelly on white bread.

Kroger honey ham on wheat with Dijon mustard

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Pesto, chicken, mozzarella, on a sub roll. Maybe some other stuff. Ordered from the local sub shop.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Super basic. Sausage sliced long-ways, shredded Mexican-blend cheese with some habanero salsa. Threw it together and stuck it in my little toaster oven.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

Delicious and simple, cherry wood smoked shaved ham, extra sharp cheddar, mayonnaise and mustard on everything bread
