GAMETAVERN SANDWICH DAY - SATURDAY APRIL 3rd

[Dylflon]

I have decided that we need to spend this week coming up with delicious sandwiches to make.

Then we collect sandwich supplies to make these sandwiches and post pictures of ourselves making and enjoying said sandwiches next Saturday.



Let's make Sandwich Day a roaring success!

This is genius. I will need bacon

[Dylflon]

Bacon is a good start.

Let's get an open discussion going certain sandwich elements we might want to try.

Possible avenues of exploration include breads, meats, veggies, spices, sauces, cheeses, and maybe other wonderful things I have overlooked.

[BreakABone]

I've got to say I've fallen for Subway's sweet onion sauce so I think we need a little of that.

[Combine 017]

I thought id be an asshole and tear this thread up, but im not like that so ill just post what I like to eat instead.

An egg done over-easy with bacon on each side of it between 2 pieces of toast.

Im hungry all of a sudden.

Club sandwich, here I come

Whenever I make a sandwich for myself I'm usually disappointed (besides an Almond butter and jam sandwich, that's easy). I think one of the real beauties of a sandwich is when somebody else makes you a perfect one and you just have to eat it. That's why I love the sub places around here, they do all the work.

A burger is a sandwich right?

Ground Beef or Ground Turkey
Add some Louisiana Hot Sauce to the meat
Add some finely diced onions, green peppers, jalapenos to the meat
Grill
Serve on butter-toasted bun with Pepper Jack Cheese
Add Chipotle Mayo (Mayo blended/food processed with chili powder, jalapeno, green pepper, a little water, and some TLC)

Enjoy. Expect diarrhea next day.


Or go to the store and buy your own bread, Sub-sandwich style
Get Chicken/Turkey strips
Mayo
Provolone or Pepper Jack Cheese
Onions
Tomato
Lettuce
Black Olives
Bacon, of course

Add Bacon, Turkey and Cheese to bread. Toast in oven for deliciousness. Add mayo/sauce. Add cold toppings. Enjoy. Expect less diarrhea.

A burger is technically a sandwich, I suppose.


Last night I had pulled pork sandwiches on wheat buns and it was freakin' delicious.



A sandwich I'm making today consists of:

Frying bacon
Frying an egg
Melting cheese on said egg as it cooks
Toasting bread
Mayo on toast
Basil and pepper on bread
Bacon on bread
Egg on bacon
Lettuce on cheese on egg
Toast on lettuce on cheese on egg on bacon on toast.
Thrust into mouth.

Dylan, I say we have a Sandwich Day sandwich making party.

[Teuthida]

Just made myself a yummy egg sandwich.

Scramble two eggs with a dash of milk (for fluffiness) and chopped onion, curry, pepper, and other seasonings in a cup. Pour that onto a frying pan and as it solidifies mold it into rectangle to fit the bread perfectly.

Wholewheat bread lathered with mayonnaise with lettuce on the bottom piece. Place finished egg rectangle on bread. Squirt ketchup ontop of egg and adhere more lettuce to it. Have the other bread slice join the party. Cut in half. Admire. Bring self to eat it. Weep for your loss of a beautiful sandwich.

Oh nutters, forgot the cheese. Next time.

Now that looks delicious, ill have to make me one of those some day.

The best thing about sandwiches is that it can be anything in between bread. Almost every meal I eat involves me making a sandwich with what ever is on the plate.


Spaghetti sandwiches.

You could be awesome like this sub place by my house and make burger subs. Holy SHIT are they good.

[Professor S]

My favorite sandwich creation:

Pennsylvania Pulled Pork

Ingredients:
One pork butt (shoulder, bone in)
The Professor's Wold Famous Pork Rub*
One bottle of Pennsylvania sour cherry wine (Lehigh Valley region, preferred)
1/2 cub apple cider vinegar (Bragg's unfiltered, preferred)
1/2 darkest of the dark molasses (to start)
1/2 cup orange blossom honey (to start)
3 onions
5 cloves of garlic

Apply a generous amount of rub to the outside of a dry pork shoulder, wrap in plastic and then foil. Let it marinate in the fridge for 24 hours, turning once.

The rest of the preparation is to take place no soonr than 12 hours before you plan to serve.

Remove the foil and plastic and apply another coating of the rub and let it sit while you prepare the braise.

In a large roasting pan, place your onion (halved) so that they make a platform for the shoulder.

Pour in the wine, cider vinegar, molasses and honey. Add the whole cloves of garlic.

Place the pork on top of the onions, fat side up.

Cook at 225 for 10-12 hours, or until the shoulder blade easily slides out of the meat with little to no resistance.

Allow it to cool for about 30 minutes and then tear apart with forks.

IMPORTANT: Reserve the braising liquid. This is your sauce.

Serve on a kaiser roll topped with the braising liquid and cole slaw.

You could be awesome like this sub place by my house and make burger subs. Holy SHIT are they good.

Burger sub, you say?

I assume just replace the bun with a sub sandwich bun and everything else stays the same?

[TheSlyMoogle]

That leads me to think of Stromboli sandwiches. HOLY SHIT ARE THOSE AMAZING!

I have until Saturday to come up with a sandwich to eats.

[magus113]

Burger sub, you say?

I assume just replace the bun with a sub sandwich bun and everything else stays the same?

For the most part. But you just throw lots of lettuce and you can put tomatoes and w/e the hell else you want. Bacon as well!

[Typhoid]

I expect everyone to document their sandwich day.

[KillerGremlin]

That's Holy Sandwich Saturday for all you Christians.

[Typhoid]

Happy Sandwich day, all.
My Sandwich Day started out at subway with 3 other friends.

[TheSlyMoogle]

Part of my sandwich day is being prepped right now.

[Dylflon]

HAPPY SANDWICH DAY!!!

I have to go gather some supplies but will wait for Typhoid to wake up first.

[Swan]

Almost forgot about this.


Need to think about what kind of sandwich to make

[Combine 017]

Does a burrito count as a sandwich?
Cause im eating one right now.
Otherwise ill just throw something together real quick and eat it.
Dont think I have too many ingredients though so ill have to improvise.

[Ginkasa]

I wasn't really thinking of doing anything extravagant or even participating in Sandwich Day at all. However, I realize that I did make a tasty ham and cheese sandwich on a cheese loaf. Extra cheesy.

Delicious.

Hmm, I failed at sandwich day.

However, I ate a Peanut Butter Creme Brulee that had a side of strawberry compote. It tasted EXACTLY like a PB+J. It was absolutely brilliant and kind of like a sandwich.

[Swan]

Had my sandwich today. Nothing fancy but still delicious. Followed it up with some cheesecake

[Typhoid]

Sandwich day was a big success, and it must have been a sandwich day miracle, because our sandwiches were delicious!

[TheSlyMoogle]

For sandwich day (No pictures yet, maybe some to follow soon as I can't figure out how to get this stupid camera to work with windows 7):

I marinated some chicken in lemon juice, fresh rosemary and garlic, black pepper and salt. It was a nice day yesterday so I actually fired up the grill around 6 PM and grilled the chicken. Came out perfect and tasty. I also grilled some fresh green peppers. I came back inside and sauteed some mushrooms and onions. I chopped the chicken into some nice strips as well as the peppers, and put all this on a loaf of fresh bread I picked up at the grocery store. I added some tasty provolone cheese, and baked in the over about 7 minutes on 400. The bread got epically crispy. Out of the oven I added some garlic pepper mayo, and served it up with a salad made with spring mix, toasted almonds, apples, bleu cheese crumbles and lavender honey vinaigrette (Doesn't exactly pair well with the sandwich, but the old man wanted me to make him a salad with nuts in it).

Overall quite the tasty sandwich day.
