The Sandwich Chat Thread

[Rax]

The Rueben is the king of sandwiches when done right. Corned beef, swiss cheese, saurkraut, russian dressing on rye bread. The most crucial element is the corned beef, get the proper stuff from a butcher and cook it at home, dont touch the crap out of a packet, that gooseberry fool shouldnt even be called beef. Cut it thick or cook it until it falls apart and you can pile it up, pulled pork style. Any mild nutty cheese will do and any good crusty bread will do instead of the rye bread too but the beef has to be good stuff or youre wasting your time. Russian dressing is basically marie rose sauce with some spices and stuff added so it can be knocked up in 2 mins as needed, easily my favourite sandwich.

Paging banjo to the thread.

Best cold sandwich - seeded baguette, pesto, roast chicken, Parma ham, rocket and shaved Parmesan cheese. My leftover roast dinner nightshift treat sandwich.

Best hot sandwich - pulled brisket, garlic mushrooms and rocket from the appropriately named 'Roast' sandwich shop round the corner.

Best toastie -NUTELLA!!!!

I'm enjoying brie and tomato sandwiches at the moment, on some triangular, wholemeal seeded rolls from the Co-op. I have a thing against posh bread if I'm honest (sliced bread is used in that saying for a reason in my opinion!), but those rolls are pretty nice.

Leftover chilli or Bolognese sandwiches are another favourite.

Breakfast: sausage, bacon, egg, brown sauce, white bread fried on one side. Yolks in sandwiches need to be pretty solid for me though. Sandwiches which make your hands messy defeat the object.

I can't do them justice but he might be able to - there's a sandwich shop on Great Western Road in the West End that does frankly incredible sandwiches. Makes me hungry thinking about it.

[Bunni]

That place is exactly why I name dropped.

[Zerudaaaaa!]

Lately I've been eating nothing but sardines and tomatoes on toast. I guess It could also be made into a (preferably toasted) sandwich. A squirt of balsamic vinegar also goes well (the thicker kind).

[Rhubarb]

cheddar, mayo & ketchup (pref. with one slice of the bread toasted)

On the off chance that this might be one of those things that sounds vile but turns out to be incredibly tasty I might give it a go next week, but my goodness it sounds pretty dodgy.

Forgot the all time greasy hangover one of two toasted cheese with fried egg and bacon filling. Runny egg obv.

Go easy on the sauces. Make sure you use good cheddar and don't be sparing.

I am majorly into my sandwiches. Started off very plain years ago, simple prawn mayo baguettes from a deli not far from my Dad's house (standard Saturday lunchtime; get the paper, some baguettes and crisps on the side) but I have since become enamoured with trying anything and everything. Both Cora and Bunni have mentioned it, but the Great Western Sandwich Company in Glasgow offer up some divine creations. Normally I'm a guy that will go somewhere once to say I've tried it then endeavour to try somewhere else but this is an establishment where I am happy to work my way through the menu, ain't had a bad sarnie yet. I mean, look at these specialties:

I've had almost all of them and each is a cracker. Then they have limited specials using whatever they get their hands on, knocking up things like a tremendous Philly Cheesesteak and oh my their Christmas special last year was a sight to behold.

I like making sandwiches at home too. Recently been into my red pesto and mozzarella, getting a bit of salami in there and some fresh sliced tomato. But as I work in a deli most days of the week see me making sandwiches, having equal fun trying out flavour combinations and then thinking of awful puns when selling them. Case in point

Fucken' sandwiches, man. Sweet nectar of life.

It seems the Americans have succeeded in eradicating the word mayonnaise from the English language

If people start calling coleslaw 'slaw' then there's gonna be trouble.

[Banjo]

Oh do strawberry float off you terrific bore of a man.

Hold the Mayo dude!

[Errkal]

I'm being dragged over to Worthing for work tomorrow which is a mega gooseberry fool hole. There is however a nice sandwich shop near our office so might go there, love their Chicken Mayo, Ham and Slaw Baguette.

[Preezy]

Just jad a lovely sandwich:

Soda bread
Lurpak
Bavarian smoked cheese
Tesco finest Leicestershire blackened ham

Get in my mouth

[Victor Mildew]

Had a bloody lovely wrap yesterday, barbecued spiced chicken chunks, lettuce, raw onion, mayonnaise and Japanese hot sauce. Simple yet so damn nice.

[Banjo]

Ad, I know you ain't far from Cardiff. Get yourself to Bomber's Sandwich House in the City Centre, fucken' divine.

[Victor Mildew]

I'll look out for it, had some great burger place recommendations from here (grazing shed etc).

I kind of favour the more simple sand which, but with top quality ingredients. So a simple cheese and onion baguette but with incredible extra mature farmhouse cheddar and good pickle, mmmm
