Bore, what is the pinnacle of sandwich

[Eschaton]

For me, its a sandwich from my college town called the trojan. Pieces of roasted chicken wrapped in ham, covered in cheese, mustard, vegetables and korean BBQ sauce in a pita.

I also like meatball subs.



i also like pulled pork sandwiches

[Smooth Groove]

Is the Trojan sandwich from USC?





I'm not sure yet what's the best sandwich but the Monte Cristo is something that I've always to try,



From wiki,

A Monte Cristo is a fried ham and cheese sandwich, a variation of the French croque-monsieur. In the 1930s–1960s, American cookbooks had recipes for this sandwich under such names as French Sandwich, Toasted Ham Sandwich, and French Toasted Cheese Sandwich.  Emmental or Gruyère cheese is typically used

[Great Rumbler]

Monte Cristos are gooood. Especially with the raspberry sauce, that really ties it all together.

[Eel O'Brian]

My top sandwiches:

- a Reuben made with a mix of corned beef and pastrami, grilled
- Thinly-sliced Roast beef and creamy horse radish sauce on a kummelweck roll, with au jus for dipping - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beef_on_weck_sandwich
- NC-style chopped pork bbq with a dash of http://www.carolinatreet.com/ sauce and cole slaw
- A well-made Cuban (Ham, roasted pork, swiss cheese, pickle relish, brown mustard)
- Muffuletta - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muffuletta
- Meatball sub (the kind where the meatballs are so big they have to chop them up) with banana peppers
- Arby's Roast Turkey Ranch and Bacon Market Fresh Sandwich - best fast food sandwich imo, expensive though

Monte Cristo sandwich is great, there's nowhere around here serving them anymore

[Huff]

One of my go to favs is from Publix. Best grocery store ever. Buffalo Chicken Sub

[Human Snorenado]

I really like a good Cuban as well, which is bonkers because I generally hate mustard.  Not on a cuban, though.

If I ever find out I'm dying from anything, I'm just gonna start mainlining monte cristos.

[Momo]

bacon, cheese, mushroom, eggs, maybe an olive on toasted white french loaf

These are incredible, although I've had it with roasted turkey and bacon which is better. Go get one now.

[Positive Touch]

for being such a food whore im having trouble thinking of what my favorite sandwiches are. i think as long as its made well i dont give a fuck whats in it. that said, if i see pulled pork on the menu im prolly getting it. god damn i love me some pulled pork.

[lennedsay]

Roast beef/French dip

Pulled pork

  :datass

[demi]

Not the pinnacle, but I always go for a good old fashioned Club.

If I got drunk a lot, I'd probably get BLT as hangover food.

[Atramental]

Oh man, these all look so good...

[Verdigris Murder]

The most important thing about a sandwich is quality of the ingredients.

Places like Subway are pretty much taste-AIDS.

[Verdigris Murder]

Vietnamese women. Tenure of hotness: maybe 16 years.
The Western ladies are maybe a 10.

When regarding them as types of wine or something.

[Positive Touch]

but thats the beauty of sandwiches really. theyre all so fucking good. the simple ones, the crazy off the wall ones, ones from different cultures, theyre all good. except PB&Js. those have always sucked.

  i would push you down a flight of stairs for a triple decker pb&j

[Shaka Khan]

omfg this thread.

You beautiful fat motherfuckers are the worst enablers ever.

[Shaka Khan]

Goddammit, Arby's better be open now. It's my only option at this point and I'm going with Eel's recommendation.

I wish I could offload some of the calories and guilt to some of you motherfuckers.

Best sandwich I've had to date was a pulled pork baguette with apple sauce, gravy and sauerkraut. Wasn't sure bout the kraut at first but it was godly

[Shaka Khan]

First time I had pulled pork in my life was during a food truck festival. I almost cried that day. I think Positive was there lol.

[StealthFan]

Me on top, PD on the bottom.

You in the middle

[CrystalGemini]

There are only a handful of sandwiches I will actually eat as a sandwich (with bread).

There's this place in Santa Cruz that makes an awesome sandwich called the Hangover Helper (bacon, avocado, fried egg, cheese - I mean c'mon!).  So fucking good.


Not a huge fan of food trucks but I really like Roli Roti and I love their porchetta sandwich.  Wish they still sold the porchetta by the pound though.


This little restaurant in San Ramon makes a great crab and shrimp sandwich too.

it was pulled pork in a grilled cheese. i mean seriously what kind of sick bastard thinks up a sandwich that demonic

[MCD]

Anything that makes it spicy as fuck.

[Diunx]

Pulled Pork and cubans

Monte Cristo looks insanely good! really want to try one!

I also make a mean salami and fried egg sandwich

[Positive Touch]

Anything that makes it spicy as fuck.

hot-ass tortas 

[Himu]

Bread.

Mayo.

Turkey or chicken.

Mustard on top of the meat.

Lettuce, tomatoes, onions, green peppers, banana peppers, jalapenos, pickles, black olives.

Put vinegar and olive oil on it. Sprinkle salt. Put on pepper, and cayenne pepper.

[Himu]

I prefer cold sandwiches.

[Verdigris Murder]

Guys. I just had a lamb and humus sandwich, the sauce was Tabasco. It was righteous.

[Barry Egan]

The Shooter. 

[demi]

Thats awesome.

It also makes my heart tighten up. Erk.

[Great Rumbler]

Had one of these today at Firehouse [not my picture]:

[Shaka Khan]

That's totally , Chippo.

[Shaka Khan]

On a second thought its probably super soggy by the time you eat it.

Is that the same sandwich? Those fucking monsters!!

Is that place good? 

How about Jersey Mike's?   

those both popped up in my area.  Anything to never have to eat Jimmy John's ever again.   

anyone remember Scholtzky's?  Pretty decent chain sandwiches, iirc

[Barry Egan]

it is the same one.  I edited a little because a classic shooter is really just the steak, the mushrooms and shallots, and maybe some dijon on the top. 

[Don Flamenco]

jimmy johns truly is overrated trash. good bread... but thats it.

how did it get so popular

i would take subway over their plain ass sandwiches.  at least subway has disgusting flavor sauces to cover up the taste of all the shitty meat and veggies.

Firehouse is pretty good. They pile up all this deli meat and then steam it up real good, throw it on a toasted bun, and then give you a wide array of hot sauce to experiment with free of charge. They also have one of those soda fountains that allows you to mix various flavors, like raspberry with Dr. Pepper and that kind of thing.

[Human Snorenado]

I like a good Turkey sandwich.  This place in Wilmington had a badass one, turkey was very flavorful and they had remoulade as a sauce option.

Another specific sandwich that was delicious was the eggplant parm at Little Italy I think it was?  SO FUCKING GOOD.  Fresh baked bread, too.  After eating one of those I always wanted a nap.

[Himu]

Firehouse is great. Lenny's too. Had me a tuna salad yesterday. Shame I can't eat bread.

[Shaka Khan]

Proof of a good sandwich right here.

I don't mind charley's when I'm forced to eat at a mall.

What's this?  Looks more like soup in bread than a sandwich

I don't mind charley's when I'm forced to eat at a mall.

only thing ive had from there was a cheesesteak like 7 years back. was dry and flavorless

i love a good cheesesteak

yes, unfortunately West Coast cheesesteaks are almost always crap

[Barry Egan]

it's a Dijon Worcestershire sandwich.  east coast thing.

My top sandwiches:

- Thinly-sliced Roast beef and creamy horse radish sauce on a kummelweck roll, with au jus for dipping - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beef_on_weck_sandwich

IIRC you are from the south, do they have these down there? I always thought it was local to the Buffalo area... used to eat a ton of them back in school at Charlie the Butcher.



I'm pretty partial to Pastrami on Rye, Philly Cheesesteaks without the cheese (just the steak, peppers and onions) and a good buffalo chicken sub. Recently discovered a delicious restaurant around here called Roast Sandwich House that has all sorts of great stuff.

Yeah, there's a little place right around the corner from me called South College Deli that serves Beef on Weck. It's the only place in town that I know of that does, though. They make their own potato chips, too 

http://www.menupix.com/menudirectory/menu.php?id=650234

Their Cubana is really good, too, but their Reuben is kinda "meh."

[Mr. Gundam]

Grilled pork sandwich at Paseo in Seattle.

[parallax]

For me, its a thin sliced pastrami sandwich stacked, and a little sauce. No mustard or fucking pickles. Shit now I want to go to the hat.

[Momo]

Eating a panini with peppered ham and sweet gouda now

[Don Flamenco]

been craving a reuben lately.  got a jew place near me that makes them right.  extra sauerkraut plx


edit: Firehouse sounds worth checking out.   any place that has lots of hot sauce options is cool with me.

I went to the neaby Arby's to try the turkey ranch sandwich Eel recommended, and realized after ordering that I forgot my wallet. I asked the guy to cancel my order or wait for me to go grab it, but he told me not to worry about it... and just gave me my meal for free. Arby's bringing people together, one sandwich at a time. :'(

He prob thought you were homeless and took pity.   like when you have a brain fart and forget your pin for your debit card 3 times in a row and the whole line looks at you thinking you are too broke to afford a Snickers.
