What's your favorite Home-Made Sammich?
reasonably accessible ingredients preferred.
Mine would be a Chicken breast w/Cajun seasoning on a Hawaiian Bun with Bacon, Swiss and Onion Parmesan Dressing.
I skip the tomato and lettuce.
i keep it simple. grilled cheese made in a cast iron skillet (gives it that nice crunchy outside). i do get fancy with the cheeses though.
I call it the "Chad Deluxe"
It's an onion bun with a Tyson chicken patty, swiss cheese, ham slice, green leaf lettuce, tomato slice, and a Miracle Whip/Dill Relish spread.
Leftover Thanksgiving Turkey - on dinner rolls. Little mayo, some salt, and potentially some cheese.
I make a spicy black bean burger with sauteed onion tomato and lettuce and a toasted bun. It's awesome. Sometimes the burgers get a little crumbly though so it can be a mess.
The best one I can remember making was a sort of club sandwich.
Ham, turkey, bacon, swiss, sharp cheddar, pickles, lettuce, and I used french onion dip instead of mayo.
I toasted the wheat bread before assembly.
@wickedd365: French onion dip makes a great sandwich spread. I've done that before too.
Hard to go wrong with a BLT
My favorite home-made sandwich is a one I didn't have to make.
When I do make a real sandwich at home I do like to go all out and get quality meats and cheeses along with good french rolls or big slices of shepherds bread . Along with onions, lettuce and pepperoncinis to top it. Also, Olive oil or wine for the bread, a lot of pepper, sometimes bacon if I wanna go crazy. I don't have the money to make those sandwiches a lot but that's what I like when I can. Oh yeah, also Wasabi Mayo is fantastic. I also like to use that chunky spicy mustard with the seeds still all hanging out in there.
at least 3 times a week I'll make myself a peanut butter and raspberry jelly sammich. I can't get enough of those.
Really simple but really good: Boars head blazing buffalo chicken on Italian bread with cheddar cheese, tomatoes and some salt.
edit: almost forgot, a touch of spicy brown mustard
@cowboydann: I love pepperoncinis so much
One of my own invention: A grilled cheddar, ham & tomato on rye, but it's hot on the outside and cool in the center.
It's stacked in certain order: rye bread with the seeds, thinly cut cheddar slices, few fresh slice of ham, chilled tomato slices sprinkled with garlic powder, a bit of salt, & generous bit of dried oregano, few more slice of ham, another layer of cheddar, bread.
Butter the outside of the bread and grill until cheese begins to melt and bread browns. Flip and cook the other side the same way. The cheese is all melty, the ham is warm, but the tomatoes retain their coolness. Even better if the outside is hit with another sprinkling or garlic powder after it's toasted.
@adam113089: One of my kids eats the same sandwich except she likes to use Huy Fong Sriracha Chili Hot Sauce instead of mustard. Sometimes she adds cilantro & a hit of lime juice with the occasional minced green onion too.
Peanut Butter and Honey is my specialty of choice.
Best homemade sandwich I ever had though was when we visited one of my Dad's childhood friends up on Long Island, he deep-sea fished regularly, and when we went out on his boat he brought sandwiches that were of a homemade fish salad (like tuna salad, but it wasn't tuna) from something he'd caught the week before. Had a leaf of lettuce added to it and it was DELICIOUS.
Roasted turkey, sweet soprasetta, prosciutto, provolone with Italian dressing on two pieces of crusty Italian bread. I often make it a panini buy putting in a large skillet with a heavy cast iron pan on top. SOOO GOOD!
Marbled rye from the bakery across town (a great bakery can be hard to find but so worth it),pastrami, swiss cheese, spicy yellow mustard, oil, vinagar, and oregino. Lettuce and pickle, or sourkraut optional.
Anybody tried a toasted PB&J? I thought it sounded super weird, but I found out how fantastic it was when I made my first one... and fell in love!
It's easiest in one of those fancy grilled cheese sammich makers - make your PB&J, then stick it in. Don't butter it like you would grilled cheese. Only put PB on one side, or all of the J is going to ooze out when you take a bite.
And, to live by my motto: Cook it till it's done.
Enjoy!
peanut butter and nutella. it's more dessert-y, but so tasty.
@carl669: That does make a good sandwich.
Sometimes I fry and egg in the skillet first and then sandwich that between two layers of cheese. Maybe add a bit of garlic salt, depending on the cheese. Mmmmm....
My favorite is cheese, tomato, and fried onion toasted in one of thse sandwich makers. I often cheat on the onions and use the dried sprinkle on ones. I sometimes add salami or ham. Tuna salad is good with cheese in the sandwich maker too.
Perhaps not my favorite, but noteworthy, is a grilled peanut butter sandwich. It is basically the same thing as grilled cheese, but you use peanut butter instead of cheese. It is very tasty. I also imagine that someone could get creative with additives.
EDIT: Nothing beats warm, dripping peanut butter.
The first thing that comes to mind is something my wife made last year:
Nice crusty roll (or loaf sliced lengthwise like a sub), lightly toasted
mozzarella
Fresh tomatoes (from our garden)
Fresh basil leaves (assorted varieties, from our garden)
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar (high quality! It's worth it)
A little bit of mayo
Grilled chicken (optional; if you're in the mood)
I haven't made it in awhile but this one is pretty delicious:
kaiser roll
grilled chicken breast
pepper jack cheese
sauteed red onion
T'ranch Sauce (tabasco/ranch)
Lettuce and tomato optional. The T'ranch sauce is the best.
Grilled Cheese the right way.
-Think sliced white bread
-Butter both side of piece of bread.
-Grill first side of each until golden brown and then place cheese of choice between the buttery toasted sides.
-Then grill the out side of the sandwich until golden brown.
-Enjoy
I'm all about the grilled cheese.
Grilled or panini style:
Dijon mustard spread on good crusty bread
Gouda cheese
Bacon
Granny Smith apple slices
Sounds strange, I know, but it's delicious.
@magiclela: I gotta try that T'ranch sauce. Sounds good.
@carl669: Yeah, I make grilled cheese here using Beecher's Flaship & Just jack on Sourdough. Also on a cast iron skillet.
Biscoff Spread + Honeycrisp Apple (granny smith is an acceptable change) slices on a croissant (a Hawaiian bun also an acceptable alternative).
Although most of the time with the Biscoff I don't get far enough to actually make a sandwich, I end up just smearing it on the top of the croissant and going to town. Or eating it on a spoon.
I also like a good standard grilled cheese (velveeta a must) with grape jelly. Sounds crazy. But it's amazing.
Definitely grilled cheese, but I don't butter the outside. 2 slices of American, 1 slice of pepperjack or whatever else I have, and some combination of oregano, basil, bayou dirt, and old bay.
Peanut butter and jelly or baked "grilled" cheese.
Roast Beef with Muenster and Dijon Mustard, preferably on French bread, with freshly ground pepper on top. That's all it needs, but tomato is a welcome addition.
Cajun turkey breast with pepper jack cheese, lettuce, purple onion and southwest spicy mustard.
:::whine mode on::: I've been sick since January. Most food tastes awful; everything else tastes yucky. I haven't been able to eat bread, cake, english muffins, hamburger buns, Twinkies, or anything bread-y since then. I'm desperate for a nice fried-egg sandwich, a peanut butter and marmalade sandwich, a BLT, or a grilled cheese. Or any of the other 30 recipes listed above.
I'm going to copy every one of them down; sooner or later I'll be able to eat The Good Stuff again, and I swear I'm going to work my way through the entire list.
:::whine mode off:::
Peanut butter, banana and mayo on wheat.
